At the core of this guitar you’ll find a set of Squier SQR alnico single-coil pickups, positioned in a “special” configuration with the middle pickup near the bridge pickup to create a unique range of dynamically responsive settings. The roasted maple neck makes for optimal tone and stability, with a sculpted heel design that makes for easier access right up to the 22nd fret.
