Gearank Recommendation

The Squier Bullet Telecaster was on our recommended list for Single Coil Solidbody Electric Guitars Under $200 from May 2021 until September 2022 when it was out-ranked by the LyxPro LYXEGBK0030B and Squier Bullet Strat HT.

Overview

The Squier brand is meant to make Fender's popular guitar line more affordable and accessible.

The Bullet Telecaster is the entry-level version of the iconic Fender Telecaster, carrying over much of the same specs, while using more cost effective materials and manufacturing processes.

It features a poplar body, paired with a maple C-shape neck.

Electronics include the ever familiar dual singlecoil setup of the Tele, along with master volume, master tone, and a 3-position pickup selection.

It also has a hardtail bridge with string-through-body design.
