Squier Affinity Series Stratocaster HSS Electric Guitar Review

Fender Squier Affinity Series Stratocaster FMT HSS Sienna Sunburst Electric Guitar Review by Moonrunner Music.

The guitar in the video was purchased from Mann's Music in the UK and I recommend them highly: https://www.mannsmusic.co.uk

The guitar in video is played through a Fractal Audio FM3 Amp Modeller & FX Processor.

DESCRIPTION
