I bought a guitar and its neck was far from perfect. I did something with it, it's better now but still waits in a gig bag for round 2. I was trying to love playing it, but I hate it so don't know when the next round comes. I bought 2 more guitars in between for half the price and they both feel much better. I should feel like a winner but feel a bit bitter.
Yes more hardtails please ! More attack and better tuning stability ,and i think most people don't use a tremolo nowadays anyway. Great video,made me 😌
I am a minimalist and have been owning only one electric for the past 5 years (and I play in a band) usually I have 2 tho, to have a back during gigs. Honestly, I think its time for back up again, this could be the one! Badass same look as John Frusciante's opening jam Strat!
Just ordered my last guitar (again). Telly type, thinline type, P90's... Red flame... My first Harley Benton... Great work again Love from Spain. Be careful everybody
The "Allen guy" would be William G Allen. He designed the Allen wrench in 1910. Probably the best screw/wrench design ever. I have two Squier Bullet Strat hardtails. Both Lake Placid Blue. I bought the first one for my 10 year old grandson just over a year ago, and liked it so much I bought another one for myself. I may replace the white pickguard, pickup covers, and knobs with black ones on mine. Or maybe not. I sure wish Fender made a Player Strat hardtail. I think they would be quite popular. I have three Fender Strats including an APII HSS, and have the bridges blocked on all of them.
Your first impression / review videos are slowly entering the awesome level, you're slowly developing your style. I like that! Hey, maybe you mentioned this somewhere at some point, but - what do you do for a living? You seem like a relaxed dude with a solid job that you are not trying to switch for a full time youtuber career... Again, cool videos! EDIT: Oh, and btw, 13% tax is nowhere near crazy! Here in Serbia we have 20% tax!
Fender's been making bullets since '81. We had 2 models at the store I worked at when I was in high school. 1 single humbucker model and 1 duel single coil model.
Excellent shallow dive ! I didn't know Squier did hard tail Strats; great for beginners. In my first few years of playing , I couldn't understand why so many people loved Strats when all the ones I was trying were either 70's Fender boat anchors or 80's Korean Squier, plywood with awful everything including poor tuning stability.
I read that Mike Rutherford of Genesis is using a Bullet Strat on the 2021 tour for a couple of songs. Apparently bought it South Africa during lockdown. The Fiesta red looks fantastic, great vid👌
Hi Landon, after watching your video, I bought it last 2 days. Mine is Sonic Grey. Sounds great and of course, there's a room for proper set up & parts upgrade. Nowadays Squier are better quality and affordable axe to have. Cheers!! Have good day.
I love it when you gripe about the squeaky plastic! I can't stand to hear someone rub a balloon! My family thinks I'm crazy! Just saying! Great reviews though. Keep up the good work!
I am last past the first ones who were before me, but not last to those past me who are truly the last. The Squier Red Hard Tail Bullet Strat is awesome but likely not the last, though it passed the first and passed the last which are both now past. (Thumbs up, I prefer HT so much I finally blocked my PRS SE's Trem after not using it once in 10 years.)
The Classic Vibes are outstanding. I just ordered a Classic Vibe Telecaster 60’s and it will actually be here today. Can’t wait! $460 but worth every penny.
For those wondering why everything burns on Landon's floor... Here in Canada we need heated floor otherwise everything freezes over. Why is it that everytime I see a red guitar with a white pickguard my brain expects to hear Sultan's of swing?
@@landonbailey I always hated the entry level Squiers for that. Although I had a 1996 Affinity and it was full thickness. The fact they shave them down signifies that they’re for younger, smaller players.
Hey Thanks for this INFORMATIVE video I just purchased a Fender Squire bullet Stratocaster HT I already have a MIM Fender Stratocaster with Fender Hot Noiseless pickups so I'm going to change out the pickups on the Squire Stratocaster etc I think even for immediate or Advanced players like myself this is a Great Backup or Main Guitar especially for Modifying
Hey Landon. Since you’re checking out these entry level type guitars, can you pick up a Yamaha Pacifica 112V and do a comparison? ...and conclude that the Yammy is way better for the money so that I feel good about myself? Please? Go Leafs Go?
I wonder how many Canadians realize that if the US ever has free healthcare for all, that there won't be so many Canadian TH-camrs any more? This just struck me while he was talking about his free healthcare.
Hey Landon :) huge fan here from The Philippines:3 do you recommend this guitar? for intermediate or pro players? or for people getting that Strat tone for a low price :)
Do you think it’s worth buying a Squier Bullet Stratocaster Hard Tail for £115 of the same website I brought my bass and acoustic from. I’m not the best at the guitar and kinda new to learning so would it be a good starter for the price u got it for.Also was wondering what polly by nirvana would sound like on here as that’s one of the only songs I can play on acoustic
I'll have to get back to you with that question. My amp hasn't been shipped yet and I'm still breaking it in with the strings and trying to smooth out the frets. All I can really say now is that the color is great and fits in almost every setting. The tuning pegs feel nice and the overall feel is good too. It can hold tune for a good while but I haven't been touching it that often.
I'd take the Canadian taxes any day for free health care. I'm half Canadian on my dads side, so I've heard about that my whole life. Oh by the way, never say, "This is the last guitar I'm going to buy." We all know that's a lie! Nice little Squier hard tail.
This is actaully my first and only guitar as of now. I love it so much but i had to stop playing for a while because my finger began to turn kind of purple.
@@Explivious I broke the strings a while ago, like 3 months after purchase and they broke again 2 days ago due to me messing around with the pegs. I haven't put the new strings on yet but last time I bought Ernie Ball super slinky 9's.
@@Ramz.mp4 if you really are playing as much as it takes to bleed fingers, just remember to get an ernieball 3 pack or something and change the strings every month or so! the amount im playing its going to be around 2-3 months unless i pick up playing like a madman, but ive also been comparing string gauges 9’s, 9.5’s, and 10’s, so i have been going through some. on this squier of course otherwise this is all irrelevant. Happy playing! I just thought the purple finger might be because your strings need replacing or your frets just need a good polish, either way fretboard clean/condition made my bullet look pretty sick wish I could include a picture for you.
This may be the strangest comment but...that squeaky plastic paper gives me chills, like fingers on a chalkboard...watching Trogly is the worst for that...just saying!!
Take a second look in the box there should be allen keys in one end of the box there kinda hidden I just got a tele thought the box was empty too ps I'm the staples comment guy an u can rip tape lol 😜 cool videos
@@landonbailey just restsrted my phone another time and it worked.i was clicking on your recent upload and it kept giving me the video from days earlier as well.was really odd.seems to be ok now.thanks for the reply.even if it did contain some of your normal smartassery😜

I gave a strat away to someone recently . Vague enough Landon ? If not I fear I've said too much 🤣
@@gman2380 you have said things LOL!
I’ve been having a crappy day and this video made me laugh, so thanks
hey glad I could do that! take care
Hang in there... Days are short. Big love from Spain
Landon, I enjoy your video's because you don't take yourself too seriously yet you still cover everything that you need to. Good job!
ya I like to have fun and keep it real. I'm also about transparency. 👍🎸
You're a Tele guy and just bought a Strat and I'm a Strat guy that just bought a Tele. Go figure!

I haven't bought my last guitar this month yet, still another week to go.
Last one of this month *so far*
Squire is doing such a great job lately! I like to do the same...... buy it…play it…flip it. Great way to check things out.
I love how one of the time stamps says *What a liar*
It's true - Honestly!
Wife: how many guitars do you need?
Husband: one more...
'🤣🎸
Congratulations Landon, it looks and sounds nice. I love that color.
Thank you!

Awesome, thank you!
My experience is no expectations, no disappointments. Or not. I like the color, or not.
I love to watch your videos, I don't know why but I hope that someday you review my guitar, an hss contemporary squier. Greetings from Chile!
Maybe one day!
@@landonbailey look at the tv dear squier is you on yt ♥️
The commentary was amazing lol🔥🔥
Fender's been making bullets since '81. We had 2 models at the store I worked at when I was in high school. 1 single humbucker model and 1 duel single coil model.
I too favour a firm tail. None of those wobbly soft ends for me.
Dang that fiesta red looks really nice. I’m not a big red guitar guy but I must admit it looks quite nice.

this is my wading review.
@@landonbailey Excellent 👌
Looks like the end result of my 2004 Squier Bullet quarantine rebuild. Navy blue to nitro fiesta red and 59’ pickups.
"Who am I to say what I like?" Amen, man.
DUDE I LOVE YOU YOU PLAYED ANAS SONG OH MY GOD AHHH I LOVE IT!
great tune!
Always great. 😊 for the laugh and not bad. Those Squires are getting better.
Thanks for the video Landon. I'm pleased that the creepy forced smile didn't last long. ;)
it hurt so much! :P
man your videos are great, wanted to check out the guitar but stayed for the personality.
cheers!

189.00 here in the states. Good guitars though for a cheap price.
pretty good
The Classic Vibes are outstanding. I just ordered a Classic Vibe Telecaster 60’s and it will actually be here today. Can’t wait! $460 but worth every penny.
cool color cool vid. rock on Lando
thanks Ronnie!
Pickups sound kind of dark for a Strat. Not sure I’m into this one. Sweet color though.
Yes ceramic singlecoils sound darker generally,like the color too
No such thing as the last guitar you will ever buy. GAS!!! Thanks for sharing Landon!! Peace!!
For those wondering why everything burns on Landon's floor... Here in Canada we need heated floor otherwise everything freezes over. Why is it that everytime I see a red guitar with a white pickguard my brain expects to hear Sultan's of swing?
It's a Pavlovian response, you need intensive psychoanalysis to be de-programmed.
Beats me... But it happens to me too...
Cool guitars but thinner bodies are a deal breaker. Has to be 44mm for me!
I prefer full sized bodies too
@@landonbailey I always hated the entry level Squiers for that. Although I had a 1996 Affinity and it was full thickness. The fact they shave them down signifies that they’re for younger, smaller players.

Really like your reddish orange guitar a lot. I want one damn it.
It's Fiesta sun faded Redish Orange.
$249 thats very expensive for a bullet Strat , here in the UK they are only like £110 pounds , maybe you guys pay a premium for the shipping ?
Nice! I hope your NEXT LAST guitar is a Squier Contemporary Stratocaster (hint).
That would be cool! maybe one day
I will use your links when I shop Amazon.
oh hey appreciate! thanks!
I love this channel
same!
59.2k subs underrated! Btw new subscriber here
Thanks for subbing!
Did you really buy it again because this is a very different guitar with the hardtail bridge isn’t it? ;-)
You a funny guy bro, subbed!
Thanks for the sub!
i love this this is like my kind of humor
Nice guitar. Cool sound test using Ana's Song by Silverchair.

If i win a squier stratocaster by giveaway. Do you recommend me to keep it or to sell it?
classic vibe jazzmaster next? plEEEEEAAAASE
maybe one day. my first guitar review was a Squier Vintage Modified Jazzmaster.
Pretty cool guitar man
👍🎸
What’s the difference between a regular strat and a bullet strat?
price and certain specs.
@@landonbailey what kind of specs
I thought Squire would be junk... I have some high end guitars... multiple guitars... but my Squier is my go to....
At least they don't say Bullet on the headstock anymore!
I wonder how many Canadians realize that if the US ever has free healthcare for all, that there won't be so many Canadian TH-camrs any more? This just struck me while he was talking about his free healthcare.
because we would move there?
Wish I could have bought my player strat in hardtail
Hey Landon :)
huge fan here from The Philippines:3
do you recommend this guitar?

You will ever do a review at Yamaha Pacifica 012? (srry for my enhlish)
maybe some day!
What's the improvements when you jump from Bullet to Affinity? These Bullets seem to be better than expected.
I’m starting to think the Bullet and Affinity models are basically the same level of quality depending on year and location of manufacturing.
Landon Bailey agreed, but bullet has a wider nut, better for me, I prefer bullets for this reason.
I zoned out. I had to watch a second time to notice that the camera also zoned out.
There are liars in Ottawa? Who would have thought! Just kidding, Landon... open the box already!
Hey Lando? Can your next last guitar be the Bullet Mustang?
Or Affinity Jazzmaster?
Please?
I’ve had both of those in mind in the past. I’ll see!
@@landonbailey cool!
