I see it’s been about two years, since your comment. 😂 Thank you so much for the laugh! My goal was two guitars. Currently, I have a semi-hollow with humbuckers and a classical. I’m looking to add a G&L spec’d USA Comanche and stop at three….. My G.A.S. therapist tells me that I’m making EXCELLENT progress…..

I think you’re feeling a special bond to that cyclone cause it’s basically you in guitar form😂

The switch has been fine on mine and everyone I’ve played with. I think he just got a defect. Changing strings a must! A Heavier gauge will fix most of the tuning issues

The Starcaster is totally cool. I thought the pickups were too bright after I'd had mine for about a month, but now I've found that for a clean rhythm track on a recording the Starcaster is amazing. Comes through the mix so clear, and never strident or brittle. Plus that neck feels great.

I've heard that a few times regarding tracking/recording...making me a little interested

No faves...because they all fill a different role...love the Bari... But the Super Sonic looks like it was designed by the guy who was fired because he showed up to work on bath-salts one too many times. I couldn't sleep at night knowing that thing was close by.

Dude, your playing has reached another level. I can remember your older videos where you would stand up and play. Which I wish you still did btw. Anyway, congrats on the massive upswing on your subscription numbers. You truly deserve the attention! I've been watching and enjoying your videos for a very long time. Keep the amazing content rolling and always looking to watch the next installment!

No lie, I’ve been serious about playing guitar for almost 7 years now, and The squire classic vibe starcaster is my favorite guitar. It’s a guitar that I just happened to start playing in a shop one day and I immediately fell in love. All 3 positions offer such beautiful rich semi-hollow tones completed with that signature bright fender chime. It’s quickly become the most played guitar in my collection even up against my real fenders.

i knew the Starcaster would win, you always seem extra happy when playing it, how about a lipstick pickup in the cyclone? , my friend did it to his jaguar and it sounded great.

love your vibe and playing and videos ryan... cool stuff

Would love to see a video with all your current collection, with a short bit of playing and opinions on each one.. It's always fun especially when you pick up a guitar you haven't in a while and get pleasantly surprised with how much you like it!

I think the Cyclone sounds great! No issues whatsoever. And what a tasty, airy solo at the end. Good job, Ryan!

If I had to choose one, it would be the Starcaster as well- love the shape and finish.

I just picked up a new Classic Vibe '70s Telecaster Custom last week and cant believe how amazing it is. When i was a kid you stayed away from squier but they seem to be much better quality now! great video

Just picked up one of the walnut starcasters from that series and I’ve been sooooooo impressed with it so far, I’m completely in love with it already!

Dammit I ordered a jazzmaster before I saw your cyclone video

I liked your evaluation process. Nice to have collection of somewhat "similar" guitars to do this kind of comparisons.

The squier classic vibe line is something special, great guitars at even better prices. Love my CV Jazz Master and would really like to pickup that starcaster.

I just ordered a starcaster, cannot wait to get it! Looking at a slick sl50 at the moment, totally worth checking out

Awesome playing!

I would also choose the Starcaster. I've tried one out and they have great playability and a very nice sound going through Fender Super Champ or a DRRI Tone Master. Plus it has the sharpest looks, IMO. But as a second I would like to try the Baritone, I dig those P-90's and maybe snazz up the look with some vinyl racing stripes. and the # 8.

My Squire Starcaster and J Mascis Jazzmaster are my two favorites! Trying to decide whether or not to install a Les Trem ii on it.

Hey Ryan! Really loved all your demos on the Supersonic Paranormal! I just ordered one myself. It looks like the main take aways for the tuning issues: (1) heavier set of strings; (2) graphite work on the nut: and (3) floating the bridge. Do you have any other advice?

Like the Starcaster best as well, Got one on order, can not wait to get it !

Ryan Im glad to see you kept the Cyclone, although Im incredibly partial to the Vintage Modified Cyclones and not the Cyclone 2 like you have. Ive got a Cyclone that I have completely overhauled and Im trying to work on videos documenting it. The Cyclone is currently my favorite guitar style from Squire/Fender and would love to chat about it!

Damn that Cyclone is really something, it's clean and soft, for someone who dont usually play on high gains its literally the one

That baritone done in a paisley with a dia de los muertos skull would be sick

That baritone tele with the P-90s sounded amazing

I followed your mods from a previous video for the supersonic by decking the bridge. In this video you said you floated it. I felt locking down the bridge really helped with tuning. Can you show how you floated yours, as you said it stays in tune even better? Thx.

I did some light modding to my J. Mascis, and it is now amazing. Way better than its price point

Enjoying your videos! The starcaster is growing on me. Just bought some Filtertrons. Would I be able to fit them in the classic vibe starcaster?

I had my first real go with the Squier Paranormal bari yesterday on band practice environment. Gotta say, Dayummm... I think I love the beast. I'm pretty sure the seller did some minor post-QC work on it, however I highly doubt it was far from a dud when it left the factory. I really didn't see this coming... as a Doom guy and having some inherent, incomprehensible dislike on teles since I was a kid, now it seems that my main guitar in our Doom band is now a Squier Tele. :D (Well, okay, quite a bit different than your standard one, but in its heart a Squier Tele.) But, what the hell - at that price point it's a stellar piece. For the purpose and role on this band, it just FITS. Thanks to scale I get great feel out of it tuned in C standard, the pickups aren't too hot for my head and pedal board, and it's a joy to play. I'v heard some complaints about the feel of pots and switch, but my units are solid - no squeaks, no looseness. Some mods MIGHT be happening in the future, but there's no rush. In my hands this will become a player guitar and sure is a keeper for me.

Favorite Squier of yours : Cyclone. Favorite Squier of mine : Bullet Mustang

I have the tele and the bullet strat.i can never find the mustang in stock for very long.i want the sea foam or the white one.

Ngl Im actually in absolute Love with the Cyclone. With some straplocks, Locking tuners, roller saddles a decent Steel block and some sound deadend springs it would be a dream come true.

You could tell nearly from the beginning that the Super Sonic was going to be the best for heavy sounds. Very different sound to the rest of them.

I think, in a perfect world (for me), the Starcaster would have Jazzmaster pickups and trem, and would use the pots and stuff from the rhythm circuit overall. Make it the jazz guitar they intended to with both attempts.

I always wanted a Jaguar so I sttled for a Squire Classic Vibe 70s Jaguar in surf green. So glad I did, plays great and the quality is really good.It used to be that Squires were known as junk guitars, Not the case anymore.

That baritone is amazing and there is definitely a niche for it! Both Rhett and Rabea have almost convinced this bass player to start buying up some bari guitars!

What colour would you refinish the baritone if you decide to strip it? I think it would look dope if you kept or black and put different colour splatters on it.

I really loved this video… my first guitar was a Squier Strat in the late 90s. I sold it, but I did pre order that Black and silver Stratocaster Contemporary Special or whatever it’s called. Can’t wait for it… this video makes me want that Super Sonic, as well as the Cyclone 😬 Did you ever have one of the Toronados?

My friend put jazzmaster trem and pickups on his affinity starcaster

Ryan you should do a guitar collection video! You have some amazing guitars in the wall!

As I understand it, Lace Sensors are constructed similarly to Jaguar pickups but they're direct drop-in replacements for strat-style pickups. You could get one of the wacky Lace rainbow three-packs and drop it into the Cyclone.

I dig the Ryan chord chugging...it speaks to my tryhard, grungey heart Surprised by how much I like the sound of the Starcaster...but the baritone cabronita is definitely on my radar now

For the Cyclone, if you decide to keep it all Strat pickups, give the Pure Vintage '65 Strat pickups in it. I just put that set in my Classic Vibe '60s Strat and LOVE them. I just got a '59 set for another project I'm working on.

I have 6 Squiers - 2 Classic Vibe & 4 Bullets, all stock ... I love them all but the Bullets , I play them the most ! ...❤️♥️💝

I have a Squire Wayne's World edition. It was made in Japan and plays amazing. Always a fun guitar to pull out and jam with.

Dude, I am SO GLAD you didn't sell any of them! This story has a happy ending!!

Yay squier. I've got two and they are great.

Squier has consistently been offering not only AMAZING guitars for the price compared with so many others in the same or mid-tier price range. I’ve also been a big fan of them always offering new and unique models consistently for over 20+ years now. For me, a Squier logo on the headstock doesn’t automatically equate to a low quality or cause me to avoid checking it out when it’s surrounded by other, more expensive brands. Truth is, if I were wealthy, I wouldn’t have a wall of ultra expensive custom shop instruments, but I’d honestly have a huge collection of “oddball” Squiers and various vintage instruments. The one super high end I’d grab would be a Vigier Arpege

Hey Ryan, what pickup do you have in the bridge position of your Jazzmaster? I just noticed the pole pieces were off to one side, similar to a covered humbucker. Interesting..

Love the high gain on the bridge

hey Ryan see if you can get your hands on a bass vi!! be it fender/squire or whatever 30'' six string like an eastwood since u like baritones so much

I bought the blondie star caster and like you I love it!!!

Just bought a CV Starcaster and I prefer it to even my $1500+ guitars. Fretwork is great, neck profile is perfect ( for me) and it looks fantastic. It just has a certain character to it that not many guitars have!

Really curious how the Super Sonic compares with the Mustang Bullet HH (putting aside the tuning issues)?

I don’t own it at the moment but am hoping to get it soon but my favorite Squire Guitar is the Affinity Jazzmaster, I adore the Jazzmaster/ Jaguar Body Style and for a little over $200 is just Perfect for someone like me

Same here, but for me a CV Jag would be number 3, although it was not in the video.

Interesting observation about the increase in quality, with squier becoming the new MIM, and the current MIM becoming entry-level MIA. I had noticed the improvement but never connected the dots.

I really want the surf green version of that Baritone Tele. I love most of the Fender Offsets, but never got into the Cyclone or Super Sonic. I have a Danelectro baritone that I enjoy, but I'd definitely try other baritones out

That baritone is awesome!

Yes to more baritones, yes to more baritone content. I love my bari and my bass vi, but it feels like all of the baritone content on youtube is for metal players with a lot of gain and drop tuning.

Squire mustang turned out to be a favorite of mine

I just purchased a Starcaster online (MF) I was wondering if it was indeed a good choice for a self Christmas gift, you just sold me into it with this and another video in your channel! Awesome content and thanks!

Na "tux" (black with white pick guard) is the classic "works with everything" colour scheme, "when in doubt go tux" (also with the baritone give it a shot with it tuned down one fret to b flat .... sweet bejesus!!!)

They All sound Fantastic ! but I'd pick the Starcaster😎

How does the Squier Jazzmaster compares to the Vintera? Is there a lot of a difference?

Plan on picking up harley Benton sc-500 bk and putting A set of EMG 57/66 in it

They all sound so cool 👍💖🔥Love them all 💕💕💕💕💕🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

if you do strip the baritone, i'd love to see it with a gold or champagne finish, it would look so classy with the white pickguard and pickups

If you’re looking for another baritone, have you considered just putting baritone strings on a Squier Bass VI? Makes an easy conversion and it’s got that JM/jag trem.

Mexico and Indonesia are building amazing instruments and we all benefit from the attention to detail!

Hi Ryan... You're the Man to ask this, I just got a 1980's Squire MIJ Stratocaster from Guitar Center, it's E 746165, What Year is it??? Your Fan Troy

I'm the Super-sonic & knuckles guy, I got a set of GFS pickups for it a alnico 2 lipstick humbucker for the bridge and a alnico 2 surf 90 for the neck. The tone knob I replaced with a CTS 500k push/pull pot. The pot is a spin-a-split for the lipstick humbucker, and the push/pull is for series/parallel. I was heavily inspired by the Danelectro XT series. I have a toronado from the paranormal series so I felt that I didnt need 2 guitars with the atomic humbuckers. I wanted a funky sound for the super-sonic, something stratty.

During the intro you look like a single mom standing there with all your heathen children 😂😂😂 great video man, modern Squiers and Epiphones are great guitars for what you pay.

Saw a company on reverb that could do a refin in the baritone - Alternative Underground in Philly. Saw their axes on a podcast last week, and they were clean. Seemed like they had some novel ideas for modifying bridges that take them to Evertune territory 🤣🤣🤣

Hey Ryan, so I’m a drummer and bass player who has always wanted to get into play guitar. I absolutely love the look of the Starcaster, and it seems like a little bit it may be something to work up to for a first guitar. Just wanted your input/opinion to see if that’s a good first guitar or to start with something a bit more “traditional” (squiers strat or tele). Thanks.

@60CycleHumcast

There is no reason why it wouldn't be a good first guitar.

The super sonic is like a Jimi Hendrix Strat, modified. Reverse headstock, reverse mounted bridge pickup.. it just needs a lefty bridge. I'll be keeping my eye out for one in the used market. Baritone sounds sexy, she needs a finish to match.. my black tele (Yamaha Pacifica) needs something too. Too plain. Pretty sure the starcaster would be my last place.. but I don't like most Fender/Squier acoustics and hollow bodies.

I've been ogleling the Gretch baritone, have you played one Ryan?

I am looking for a Fender Squire paranormal cabronite thin line telecaster in white PLEASE HELP ME. AL REID

When you first revealed the Starcaster I wasn't impressed. I didn't like the headstock or the offset body, but that thing has really, really grown on me. I'm now actually thinking of buying one - I think you would regret selling it as you clearly have a bond with it.

Since I'm on a huge post-hardcore kick and love Tera Melos (Nick Reinhart apparently had a lot of input on the Super-Sonic), I'd probably have to choose the Super-Sonic as my #1 for buying based off of sound, assuming all of the play feel is equivalent. I don't like stratocaster style pups for the sound I want, so that puts the cyclone at last for me (it looks awesome though). Jazzmaster #2 for its trem, Starcaster #3. Maybe I'm weird. I've been coveting the Univox Hi-Flier phase 2 and Ampeg AMG100 (a wood version of the clear lucite Ampeg Dan Armstrong) because of Unwound, I'm totally obsessed with them. I feel like the Jazzmaster would be the best fit for the specs on those, but the Super-Sonic sounds closest to those, tonally. Thanks for doing what you do, Ryan! I really appreciated this break down between them all.

Now I would like to see all your amps rated!

oof. thats a trickier one.

Dude, put a Duesenberg Les Trem on the Starcaster. I did it to mine and it takes it to a whole different level. (Mines a Fender, not Squier). It also stays in tune better with it installed.

I love the Super Sonic, amazing short scale.

Is that the affinity starcaster Ryan plays or the classic vibe?

As much as I like my jazzmaster my fav of these is the supersonic it's so punk rock🤘🔥🤘

When you said christmas it reminded me that we have 3 months till Christmas of this awful awful year

Ryan...just keep all of them. I think your new Squires are too new to really have a solid say. As far as baritone go look at Danelctros. You might want to check out Fender VI bass guitar or a Schecter Hellcat. They are draper than a baritone. They play different than a bass too. BTW guitars outside of your wheelhouse will add much more to your playing. I have an active Charvel that's outside of my main guitars but I feel it will add to a style or styles my Fenders and hollow bodies.

The Cyclone is the winner in my opinion and of course I love the baritone's sound.
