The Squier CV 70s LRL is a fantastic entry into vintage-inspired Strat territory. The natural finish showcases the wood grain nicely, and the neck profile is surprisingly comfortable. This is a great option for players seeking that classic Strat chime and playability at an affordable price point – especially those who love a slightly thinner neck profile.

Frequently Asked Questions
The 'C' shape is a reasonable approximation, slightly thinner than some genuine 70s Strats, but still very comfortable and familiar.
It's serviceable, but expect some tuning instability if you use it extensively; a proper setup and potentially upgraded tremolo springs are recommended for more aggressive use.
It's a gloss polyurethane finish, which offers good protection but lacks the subtle character development of a nitrocellulose lacquer.
