California Blue with a black pickguard is a sharp-looking combination on this Sonic Stratocaster. The laurel fingerboard gives it a slightly warmer, rounder tone compared to the maple-board versions, which some players actually prefer for smoother lead lines and fuller chords.

This is Squier's entry-level Strat, and it covers the fundamentals well. Three single-coil pickups provide classic Stratocaster tones across all five switch positions -- from bright and biting on the bridge to warm and round on the neck. The slim C profile is friendly for beginners, and the lightweight body makes it easy to play standing up for extended periods. The California Blue finish adds a dash of surf-inspired personality. Solid guitar for learning, bedroom practice, or jamming with friends.
