I just plugged in to my new J5 telecaster by squier and man what a super guitar. The neck is just the best. the hardware is good quality, the overall looks and awsome sound is just great. Its not your average telecaster sound. 2 humbuckers that are very hot. Neck is very fast and just a load of playability for $379.00 buck an awsome deal in a guitar that really just feels somuch more of a high end guitar. I would recommend it to anyone. If you play one you will probably buy it. The only thing to nit pick is the thing is a little heavy but nothing you cant get used to. Everything else is just the best.
