That's exactly the idea behind the Squier Classic Vibe '50s Stratocaster HT. It takes the beloved Classic Vibe formula and swaps the standard vibrato for a string-through-body hardtail bridge, a feature Fender actually introduced back in 1955. The result is a guitar that leans into sustain and stability while keeping all the vintage Strat personality you'd expect from the Classic Vibe lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Classic Vibe is in excellent condition. The guitar is fully functional, it has a very small amount of normal play wear. (see pictures)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Body Built for Tone and Comfort\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is poplar — a lightweight wood that keeps this guitar comfortable through long practice sessions and longer gigs. It's finished in gloss polyurethane in Seafoam Green, paired with a 1-ply parchment pickguard for a look that's straight out of the early days of the electric guitar. The aged white pickup covers and control knobs add to the cohesive vintage-leaning aesthetic without going over the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePoplar delivers a balanced, punchy character that works well with single-coil pickups — clear on the top end, defined in the low-mids, and light enough that you won't notice it on a long gig. The gloss polyurethane finish protects it well and gives it that unmistakable clean sheen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Neck You'll Actually Want to Play\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe maple neck sports a comfortable \"C\" shape with a tinted gloss urethane finish for a smooth, fast feel. It connects to a maple fingerboard with a 9.5\" radius — flatter than vintage-spec, which means chord work feels natural and bends don't fret out the way they can on a rounder board. You get 21 narrow-tall frets and a bone nut at 1.650\" width. The 25.5\" scale length is standard Strat territory, giving you that snappy, defined attack that players have been chasing since the '50s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1950s-inspired headstock markings and vintage-style tuning machines round out the old-school look. Nickel-plated hardware keeps everything cohesive and authentic without going chrome-modern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Hardtail Bridge — and Why It Matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 6-saddle string-through-body hardtail bridge is the defining feature of this model. String-through-body designs are known for improved resonance — the strings anchor directly through the body, so more of that vibration transfers into the wood. The bent steel saddles are period-correct and allow for proper intonation adjustment across all six strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've ever wrestled with a Strat tremolo that just won't stay in tune, or you simply prefer a guitar that's set-and-forget on intonation, the HT is a genuinely compelling alternative. You still get all three Fender-Designed alnico single-coil pickups in SSS configuration, the full 5-way switching with master volume and two tone controls — just no dive-bomb bar to worry about.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Poplar, gloss polyurethane finish, Seafoam Green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck: Maple, \"C\" shape, tinted gloss urethane finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard: Maple, 9.5\" (241 mm) radius, 21 narrow-tall frets, black dot inlays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut: Bone, 1.650\" (42 mm) width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale length: 25.5\" (648 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickups: 3x Fender-Designed alnico single-coil (SSS configuration)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls: Master volume, Tone 1 (Neck\/Middle), Tone 2 (Bridge); 5-position blade switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: 6-saddle string-through-body hardtail with bent steel saddles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard: 1-ply parchment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware: Nickel-plated, vintage-style tuning machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a used Electric Guitar from our inventory.
