Have not connected with you in some time, Robert. I have wanted to tell you that I did find a 2021 Squier Bullet Mustang in the Royal Blue (?) motif. I have been very happy with it as it is a good fit for my smaller hands and arthritic left thumb. The only shortcoming is the (#1) high E string which buzzes badly and just doesn't make solid contact at the A sharp/B flat sixth fret. I don't know if it's the nut, truss rod or a warped fret board? Perhaps, you have an idea what could be causing it. I don't want to take it back to the mom and pop seller, if it can be avoided. I believe it's still under warranty. Thanks. Keep up the great work.
After much research and watching this video, I found one for sale and ordered it. I have heard the saddles are not easy to adjust for intonation. Have you found that to be an issue yourself? Thank you, great vid.
@@robertsguitarsandgear In the specs it mentions that the radius is at 12". In my research many say that a 9.5 is better for chord changes.Others argue that 12" can be just as good that way granted that the neck isn't too thin. With smaller hands have you noticed a difference in playing the 12" neck while changing chords? For the better? Thanks a ton.
@@robertsguitarsandgear that's interesting Robert, thanks for the reply, so many people say it's easy to make chord changes with a 9.5" radius or flatter but others, such as yourself, mention that it didn't really effect their play much at all or that they didn't notice. I guess I'll see for myself soon. Thanks for your time.
I still have mine stock. It's got the rosewood board,I think it's 2016. It really sounds good just stock as it is. Better than other guitars I have. Mine is the blue sparkle. I wish they didn't do away with bullets.i have a bullet strat, and the neck is just amazing. In a few years I think ppl are gunna catch up on any older bullet guitars, no matter the model, as many of them are simply good. If I took my bullet starts neck, and tinted and finished it and put a usa fender decals on it, nobody would bat an eye.its just ever so slightly chunky. It's a Chinese one. I have an Indonesian bullet strat that's a few years younger,and it's not as nice. The neck is thin, the piece of rosewood is superrr thin.so much so that the neck side markers are half on the rosewood, and half on the maple. I'm thinking of getting the newer vintera 2 mustang

That sounds like it could be a high fret.
@@boredgamedadThanks so much for your reply. Live long and prosper.
I have the Squier sonic mustang and it's a beautiful guitar. ♥️🎸. California blue. Thanks.
I'm glad to hear that, enjoy yours!
Hey rob im considering this guitar but I’ve heard people having intonation issues. Have you experienced this?
@@miffygames9099 Never for me, I’ve had two of them.

@@scourneene Thanks, no issue for me.

@@scourneene I truly have not noticed a difference for me from 9.5 to 14”.

Good video I enjoyed your review
Thanks very much!
I got one it's fine, but also Ibanez S series are good and light guitars

Awesome, I totally agree.
Ns here!!! Im 62 and still crazy about guitar!!! My hands are getting bad so I need something light and easy to play.
Welcome! Take a look at the Squier Strat-o-Sonic, it is my new ergonomic champion guitar.
More so then the Bullet? @@robertsguitarsandgear
@@scourneene Nothing is more ergonomic than the bullet, but the Strat-o-Sonic is a better overall guitar.
Howdy neighbor. I'm enjoying the blue Les Paul Standard. Chris
That’s great, super guitars for sure!
Too bad . . .bullet series are now discontinued for something more expensive but . . .meh quality.
