Squier Sonic Telecaster, Torino Red

Telecaster tones

Try out any style of music you like, from country to crunchy rock, the Sonic Telecaster can handle it through its dual single-coil pickups. They offer plenty of clarity and brightness in their tone, granting you superb definition and note separation to help make sure you're hitting the right frets. And thanks to their versatile output, you're free to try virtually any musical genre that takes your fancy!

Stable and reliable performance

When you're just starting out you want to focus more on playing and less on maintenance - and the Squier Sonic Telecaster ensures you'll be doing just that. With a sturdy six-saddle hardtail bridge and Squier tuning machine combo, you can rely on an accurate intonation and steady tuning to keep your sound on point. And for the premium, eye-catching look, these are all finished in chrome to catch the spotlight.

Thinner. Lighter. Faster!

The Squier Sonic series is a superb place to start your electric guitar journey thanks to their reduced weight and slender bodies. It makes it much easier for a beginner to play for longer and also makes it a breeze to rock while standing up! This light and nimble action helps you focus on your playing, and transfer more strength into your fretting hand.

Riff with ease

Develop your skills with no trouble on the Sonic Telecaster's thin "C" shape neck. It's slimmer than a normal "C" shape neck to give your hand loads of room on the fretboard, making those complex chords and quick riffs easier to execute. Additionally, the back of the neck is honed to a fine satin finish that lets your hand transition around the scales at speed. It's the perfect learning platform for any level of player!

One for the future

Want to customise your guitar? No problem! The Squier Sonic series is built to scale with Fender instruments, meaning you can swap out parts to develop your tone and further personalise your riff machine as you progress your skills.
