Squier | Affinity Series
New Features and Colorways!
Squier adds new features and colorways to its ever-friendly Affinity Series, classic Fender models designed to be accessible to players of all budgets and skill levels.
The Affinity Stratocaster is back, available in 3-Color Sunburst with a laurel fingerboard; Black, Lake Placid Blue, and Olympic White with a maple fingerboard; or in an HSS configuration with a flame maple top, equipped with a maple fingerboard and finished in your choice of Sienna Sunburst or Black Burst. Each lightweight, gloss polyurethane body comes outfitted with a 2-point tremolo bridge and sealed split-shaft die-cast tuning machines for fast, easy tuning and restringing.
Enhanced by a resonant string-through bridge, the Affinity Telecaster also offers your choice of laurel or maple fingerboards, with laurel accompanying the Lake Placid Blue and Olympic White finishes, and maple on 3-Color Sunburst and Butterscotch Blonde models.
Its Deluxe dual-humbucker cousin, the Affinity Telecaster Deluxe, sports Burgundy Mist and Charcoal Frost Metallic finishes, available with laurel fingerboards, and a traditional Black finish with a maple fingerboard.
Squier doesn’t leave the bassists out. The Affinity Jazz Bass® V boasts dual single-coil pickups, vintage-style open-gear tuning machines, and your choice of 3-Color Sunburst, paired with a laurel fingerboard, and Olympic White, paired with a maple fingerboard.
The Affinity Precision Bass PJ substitutes a P Bass pickup in the neck position, creating a mixed set with the tonal qualities of both a Precision and Jazz Bass. The Affinity Precision Bass PJ offers four finish options: Lake Placid Blue and Charcoal Frost Metallic with a laurel fingerboard, and Olympic White and Black with a maple fingerboard.
The Jaguar Bass H rounds out Squier’s new additions to the Affinity Series. This 32”-scale four-string features a lightweight poplar body and a single ceramic humbucking pickup, making it fat and punchy, yet comfortable as can be.
