My first Fender/Squier was in 1984, a present from my folks after coming out of hospital after my accident.
I only played it for a couple of years, then it ended up in my folk's attic being the ungrateful teenage headstock snob that I was back then.
I switched to an Ibanez RS1000 (currently in pieces) and a Washburn pointy headstock thing with the Wonderbar trem (worst guitar ever).
During an attic clear out for my folks in 2017, I came across the old Squier, in more or less mint condition.
My nephew was just starting out and had been playing acoustic, so I thought I'd carry out the family tradition of giving him his first electric because my uncle had given me my first guitar.
He intends to drop it off to me in the next few weeks because he hardly plays but I've told him I'll restring it, give it a set up and return it to him before he comes to a decision whether to give up entirely. I'll also sit with him and give him a few lessons.
Strangely I've never taken any pictures of this guitar and know very little about it.
It's taken me about an hour online looking for an exact photo of the guitar, so I'm assuming this Squier Bullet MIJ bought in 1984 might be quite rare.
I've enclosed a picture I found online of one and I'm wondering if anybody else has one of these or knows much about them.
I promise I'll post a photo of the guitar itself once it's in my hands in a few weeks time.
