The Squier Sonic Stratocaster in California Blue brings fresh energy and modern style to one of the most iconic electric guitars ever made.

The 6‑saddle tremolo bridge adds expressive vibrato while maintaining stable tuning, and the laurel fingerboard brings a touch of warmth and smoothness to the guitar’s overall feel. It’s a flexible, inspiring instrument built for creativity.
