Squier Affinity Stratocaster vs Yamaha Pacifica 112 (Battle of the Strats)

Squier Affinity Stratocaster vs Yamaha Pacifica 112 (Battle of the Strats)

Squier and Yamaha both make affordable Strats of different types. Today I take a look at two guitars which fall into the 200-300€ price bracket. The Yamaha Pacifica is slightly more expensive, but in terms of price they're still fairly close. So which is better? Find out in this video.
Check out the reviews I did of these guitars.

The gear I most often use.
A Stratocaster of some kind, either an Yngwie Malmsteen Strat, such as this: https://www.thomann.de/intl/fender_yngwiemalmsteen_vw.htm?partner_id=45801
or a custom Strat with a scalloped fretboard.
For 7 string stuff I mostly use an Ibanez Universe.
