Debating selling my Squier Esquire... please help me decide!

[JOLLY]

Telecasters suck ergonomically, and your Tele doesn't even have a neck pickup. Ditch it for a better guitar.

Boooooo!!

Keep it, buy another guitar.

Keep it, buy another guitar.

This is always great advice.

I snapped some picsies to sell it. It looks pretty on the picsies, LOL. I'm having second thoughts.
​
But at the same time... those darned horrible seams, LOL.

You can always keep it and use it to learn a new style.

Or pull the neck and pickups off it to return it to the kitchen cutting board that all telecaster start out as. : D

Not according to my girlfriend. lol

You try to fit square pegs into round holes more than anyone I know. Just sell it if you haven't already.

What can I say? I like a challenge. :lmao:

 

[ToneFiddler]

the seems are really bad, if it is not the best sounding tele you could imaging: sell it!

 

[Mincer]

Yeah, the seams are bad enough that any other company besides Fender would have painted it a solid color.

All those upgrades dont add value to anyone but you

Can you put the original parts back only before selling it?

You can get one of the other bargain guitars with a tummy cut and forearm swoop

Some have stainless frets as well

Save your upgrades

You can hack that up
Grind a tummy cut and forearm swoop
Stain the exposed wood dark
give it a wool sweater look

The stock Esquire pickup is horrible, LOL. The QP is not. The HR was not horrible either, it just wasn't my thing. I'd totally get another Super Distortion for it, though... but do I really want to?

I'd gladly send it to you for disposal if you pay the shipping rate from Canada plus and the cost of me taking it to get shipped, hahaha.

I would but it would probably end up being more than the guitar is worth. Best of luck selling it. I hope you find an axe that better suits your needs. Merry Christmas!

 

[Rex_Rocker]

It sold.

Getting a new neck for my Fender! Yippee!
