My Guitar Notes

Squier Cyclone

The Squier Cyclone is the version of Fender's Cyclone electric guitar produced under the Squier name. It uses the compact offset body shape derived from the Mustang with a pair of humbucking or single-coil pickups depending on the version, a bolt-on neck and a synchronised vibrato bridge, giving a small, light guitar with a fuller electric voice than the student models the shape comes from. Squier instruments of this kind are built in the Far East at a low price, and the Cyclone is one of several Fender designs made available through that route.
