Free delivery and returns on eligible orders. Review: A great Guitar - I was dubious about buying this. But for the price it is a great little Guitar. Lovely finish on the Body. The Headstocks front is finished in a Gloss lacquer. However the neck and fretboard feel as though there is no finish on there. I have emailed Squier about this to see what it has or has not been given at the Factory. There is no Skunk stripe on the back of the neck. But that's not an issue. It sounds pretty good too, but don't expect a full on Telecaster twang. My Guitar has a low hum, until I touch the Strings. A bad Earth possibly? Going to have that looked into. The Strings are 9 gauge so easy to play on and the neck and Fretboard is smooth, so nice to play, the C shaped neck is also very comfortable in the Hand. It is very light to hold too. The Action on the strings are fairly low. Using YouTube and a Guitar care kit, I managed to set the Neck relief and set the String Action even lower, increasing the playability out of the box. All in all, I am very happy to have bought this Guitar. 10/10. Great Guitar for a Beginner or someone like me wanting something cheap to learn Guitar Maintenance on whilst having something to play too. Review: Amazing Telecaster guitar for the money. Sounds as good as a Β£3000 guitar. - So there's nothing really to fault this guitar (Fender Squire Affinity Telecaster), especially for the price (Β£189 in December 2022 from desertcart UK). Delivered directly from Fender UK (nice). I'm no expert guitarist, but have played a few in my time, and have written for guitar (bass / electric /acoustic). The sound is spot on for a Telecaster. Easy to tune and the strings hold their tuning fairly well over time. The finish of the neck and body is of good quality (smooth and glossy body, with smooth satin neck), and the fret is finished perfectly (no sharp edges or rough bits). Even the 2 knobs and the coils selector feel pretty solid (reviews of older versions found these to be a bit plasticy and bendy). Its fairly light - I'm used to something with a couple of more KGs weight, but that is probably a good thing - especially for beginners. Note: The strings come loosely tuned (down tuned), so wil need to be tuned upon delivery. There are a number of good easy to use iPhone / Android apps that wil do this very quickly / easily. In all, a really good all rounder for blues / jazz / rock / country / pop / lead or backing. ## Features - YOUR GATEWAY TO FENDER: A superb gateway into the Fender family, the Squier Affinity Telecaster delivers legendary design and quintessential Tele tone for aspiring players - EASY TO PLAY: A slim "C"-shaped maple neck and thin, lightweight body make this Tele genuinely easy to play, while the smooth 9.5" maple fingerboard keeps practice comfortable - CLASSIC TELE TWANG: Dual single-coil Tele pickups with 3-way switching deliver crisp, cutting tone for genre-defying versatility across country, rock and indie - MORE SUSTAIN, SMOOTH TUNING: A string-through-body bridge boosts resonance and sustain, while sealed die-cast tuners with split shafts make tuning and restringing quick and easy - LEVEL UP YOUR SOUND: Upgraded features and genuine Fender pedigree make the Affinity Series the perfect next move for players ready to progress ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B091BHZC7X | | Back Material Type | Poplar Wood | | Back material type | Poplar Wood | | Best Sellers Rank | 5,609 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 11 in Solid Body Electric Guitars | | Body Material Type | Poplar | | Body material | Poplar | | Brand | Fender | | Brand Name | Fender | | Colour | 3 Colour Sunburst | | Connector Type | 6.35mm audio jack | | Country of Origin | Indonesia | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 836 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Maple Wood | | Guitar Bridge System | Fixed | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | S-S | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Instrument | Guitar | | Item Dimensions | 111.8 x 38.1 x 10.2 centimetres | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 111.8L x 38.1W x 10.2H centimetres | | Item Type Name | Electric Guitar | | Item Weight | 4.54 kg | | Manufacturer | Fender | | Manufacturer Part Number | 0378203500 | | Material Type | Maple Wood, Poplar Wood | | Model Name | AFF TELE MN BPG 3TS | | Model Number | 0378203500 | | Neck Material Type | Maple | | Neck material type | Maple | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Strings | 6 | | Product Warranty | 2 year manufacturer. | | Scale Length | 25 | | Set Name | Squier by Fender Affinity Series Telecaster 3-Tone Sunburst | | Size | Larga | | String Material Type | Nickel | | Top Material Type | Maple Wood | | Top material type | Maple Wood | | UPC | 885978722723 | ## Product Details - **Back material type:** Poplar Wood - **Body material:** Poplar - **Brand:** Fender - **Colour:** 3 Colour Sunburst - **Fretboard material type:** Maple Wood - **Guitar pick-up configuration:** S-S - **Hand orientation:** Right - **Neck material type:** Maple - **String material type:** Nickel - **Top material type:** Maple Wood ## Images ![Squier by Fender Affinity Stratocaster Beginner Electric Guitar, Sunburst | 2 Year, 3 Color Sunburst, Maple Fingerboard - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61QdfqSCbmL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Color, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: If i purchase, will i receive what's on the pictures?

Will need to replace them. Great for beginners, also for myself who has played a little while. Overall very good sound and good value. ## Frequently Bought Together - Squier Affinity Series Telecaster Electric Guitar, with 2-Year Warranty, 3-Color Sunburst, Maple Fingerboard - Amazon Basics Adjustable Folding Guitar Stand, A-shape, Fully Assembled - For School Music Program, Concerts & Multiple Users, Black - Fender Frontman 20G Guitar Amp, 20 Watts, with 2-Year Warranty 6 Inch Fender Special Design Speaker, 10x16x16 inches --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/385825963-squier-by-fender-affinity-stratocaster-beginner-electric-guitar-sunburst-2](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/385825963-squier-by-fender-affinity-stratocaster-beginner-electric-guitar-sunburst-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-08-29*
