[QUOTE=grape nut]the one thing that bugs me about squires is that generaly the people who play squiers are the people who want to play to say they play, and never actualy get that good. QUOTE]

Not to pigion hole Squire players or anything! What about people who would like to learn how to play first without spending the kids tuition money on a guitar? I would be willing to bet that many good players started out on a $159.00 Squire.
