Fender Squier Strat Pak

July 12, 1996 -- Aspiring musicians can enter into the world of amplified music with Fender Musical Instruments' new Fender Squier Strat Pak - a single package containing a Fender Squier guitar, amplifier, and all the accessories needed to start rockin'.

"For those who are unfamiliar with electric guitars and amplifiers, choosing the right equipment can be a little intimidating," said Joe Carducci, marketing manager, Fender Electric Guitars. "The Strat Pak gives these consumers an excellent set of Fender products right at their fingertips, including an authentic Fender amp with many of the same features found on more expensive models."

The Strat Pak includes a Fender Squier Standard Stratocaster guitar (available in Arctic White, Black, and Torino Red) with three single coil pickups, 21 frets, standard tremolo, and five-way pickup selector. The amplifier, a 15-watt Fender Squier Champ, features an 8-inch speaker, dual cascading gain controls, master volume control, treble, mid and bass tone controls, headphone jack and open-backed cabinet. Accessory items include a nylon gig bag, strap, instrument cord, picks, and a set of Fender strings. The guitar, amp and accessories are packaged together in one box for convenience and easy handling.

With a suggested retail price of $425, the Squier Strat Pak offers excellent value as a gift for the Holidays, birthdays, graduations or special occasions throughout the year. "It's the kind of package I would have begged my parents for when I was starting to play," said Carducci.
