I have the Squier CV 50s Tele. I haven’t compared it to other Telecasters, but it sure is a nice guitar. I got mine used, so I did some setup adjustments. It plays great and is a heck of a value.

Got the Vintage. And love it. But my bridge pickup broke and I had to replace it. Now its a bit hotter but sounds absolutely killer! Very playable guitar, love the Vintage brand. And way to go on this demo. Very down to earth and accessible. Well done.

I have the Vintage V52 Icon Series heavy relic & its the best. Sounds amazing better than the squire and plays better than a fender player too . Maybe I was just lucky buts its deffo a keeper

Squire sounds a little bit nicer. But the nice finish on the neck on the Squire really is the deal maker.

@mikenorman6697 8 ай бұрын

In this video - the Squier sounded better to my ears. More sustain and more of that Tele mojo. The Vintage sounded more muddy and possibly higher output.

Hands down, the squire sounds more balanced. Both sound good but the squire has the edge in this one.

@Hundenminhelmer 3 ай бұрын

I have the CV. However I would likt to swap that neck for a soft V or a U shape neck. Anyone who knows if that's possible? Will an ordinary Fender tele neck fit?

I think the squire was much brighter but I've owned Vintage branded guitars and they are excellent. You can find some really nice Vintage branded guitars especially early ones. Good to mod too.

@jamesdykes517 Жыл бұрын

Vintage sounds a little warmer until the bridge which seems brighter with that classic Tele twang. Squier sounded smoother distorted. Squier seems like it has a lighter paint job with the grain popping through.

@cpamiseso 9 ай бұрын

The V52 bridge pickup is kind of warmer so its middle position isn't as distinctive as CV, because CV has its neck pickup very warm and its bridge pickup very trebley. When overdriven, the CV has more bark and bites due to its more highs/chimes compared to V52. But it's not something EQ sections can't work out.

Yeah I think what people are hearing as clarity in the squier would be harshness in person. Just from playing these here and there in a shop

Swap the pickup of the vintage to an American standard telecaster pickup and that guitar will sound better than the American Telecaster, I HAVE DONE THE COMPARISON BY MYSELF, my friend came to the same conclusion🤣
