Squier Super-Sonic: a quick review and demo

[3rdAltChannel]

I kick myself in the nuts everyday for selling my silver super sonic about 8 years ago!

[jordidwdw]

what riff are you playing at 1:40 ???????

[FluffyMuffina]

I'm about to get one of these beauties!

[superdude593]

This guitar is versatile as fuck i can even get nice sludge metal sounds outta it, honestly the only guitar i wanna play for the rest of my life nd i plan on hunting more down in the future

[gamemasterzoomzoomom]

How is this beast on Foo Fighters?

[alsatiancousin1]

I had the exact same guitar in blue sparkle too a few years back. regret selling it.

[Zenex666]

Question, you meant the original owner turned it into a lefty right? because the way it is Is the way it supposed to be, so he ruined (in a way) the guitar by re screwing the nut upside down... Kinda makes no sense I mean why didn't he just buy a jaguar or a jazzmaster? Because aside from the controls a super sonic is just an upside down jaguar to right handers.

[secretsquirrell13]

you and I sir both park our cars in the same garage when it comes to jamming out...peace.

[IDanClarkI]

i actually prefer squier to fender tbh :L

gibson, and epiphone and ibanez etc etc can go to hell!

exept the epiphone et270 ;)

i really want a supersonic :(

[MrWadestar]

Sounds cheap & plastic, I will stick with Gibson any day.

[boaromir]

The strap button is supposed to be on the neck plate.

[gibby1117]

@boaromir - True. But I really don't like it there.

[usblues100]

yes gibby, when I purchased this guitar I also had a strat. The strat and the supersonic had similar playability, but the the soapbox pick-ups on the supersonic rocked much harder. by the way, you have some pretty good licks there, stay with it.

[sugarveins]

Nice guitar I have a fender vista venus (courtney love model). i love vista series guitars. my venus sounds similar.

[usblues100]

I bought this same guitar in 1998, same sparkle blue and everything, and it played real nice. I was stupid enough to give it to my brother who quickly traded it in on a Fender Mustang which didnt play half as nice as this guitar. I bought it brand new at mainley music in Potsdam NY for $199!

[gibby1117]

@usblues100 - mistake by your bro for the Mustang. Super Sonics are far cooler.

[defjamv89]

I wish I could find this guitar *sigh*

[Dorillo76]

wtf

you are awesome...

[RickTDK]

Thanks for the demo. I may be a pain in the ass and I think the guitar sounds good but can you do a demo where you use the other pickups and less distortion. I am really interested in one of these guitars but there are only a few demos on YouTube and they mostly done with everybody cranking up the distortion and I can't tell what this guitar actually sounds like. Thanks.

[gibby1117]

I know what you mean. I'd be glad to do that for ya if I still had this guitar. Just sold it last week. Was a cool guitar - just didn't play it as much. Couldn't quite get comfortable on the 24" scale.

[Andybee76]

I have one of these, exact same colour! Bought it for £289 in 1998 and still use it today I love this guitar!!

[elliezzer]

Do you want to sell to me?

[skeleton315]

I want thAt guitar

[PhilsenLasVegas]

That's a really nice guitar. It's like an upside down Jaguar. I want one!

[gryzlov]

I want to make a bass version.

[PhilsenLasVegas]

I like that idea, my friend.

[nbrothergtr]

I'm a little confused how the controls ended up in the right spot with the left-right switch..

[JonnyCapricorn]

i like the idea of the supersonic better than the actual supersonic.

Its ugly, but, cool. but just ugly. in the end.

As long as you like fuck what i say.

[signyouout]

wow *-*

i think i buy one^^

[glennw1002]

ive got two of these mate. blue and white. theyr amazing. got em for about 300£ each. replaced the humbuckers with seymours. so good. finaly good to see another around

[myguitardidyermom12]

awesome guitars shouldnt have shitty motley crue esque riffs on it

[kurtcobain628]

where did you buy the guitar and how much did it cost

[gibby1117]

Bought it on eBay for $400

[noahfuckyourface]

Who the fuck changed the knobs?

[gibby1117]

Probably the guy that had it before me - Sean Redd. I believe he bought it brand new.

[aphalga]

i want

[Ryator08]

i think it would be cool ( when you have the time) to do your other guitars on here.

[gibby1117]

Indeed!  Probably will :)

[Ryator08]

like to hear that new tele of yours.

[kennymc1020]

justify, maybe ...these are really good guitars. maybe not vintage gibson but fuck off. I love mine and like this guy have a varied collection. best squier ever made.

thanks for the post.

[gibby1117]

Absolutely :)

[moliba11]

elle est terrible:::!

[70goldtop]

I hope the straplock hole won't kill the value on it?LOL!!!!!!

[70goldtop]

$400?????????????????It sounds like junk.They sell those at the mall for $150 at the harmonica shop

[lukeschennFTW]

SO NOOOB GTFO

[PestEBW]

Gibby You are a True Rock God

[70goldtop]

Looks cheap and it is cheap.People are always trying to justify buying cheap guitars.How does it sound clean with alot of wood tones?I'm sure it has none.PLAY SOME SLOW LOUD COMPLEX CHORDS!!!!!!

[seadonkeyridesagain]

70goldtop... you are a twat

[Megamaniac610]

you don't have to justify buying a cheap guitar, but I'd love to see you attempt to justify spending $3000 on a gibson when there are guitars that are just as good for about $500

[lukeschennFTW]

500 might be a little low try about 800

[famachris]

You might consider a fret dress and a pro set up if you are having problems with those frets.

[gibby1117]

It ships out today from a very qualified luthier :)
