Been hunting about for a cheap and cheerful guitar for the eldest to beat, picked up a white Squier Bullet yesterday for less than the price of a few after work Friday night beers. 
it was covered in stains and one of them I can only describe as looking like egg yolk.

anyway got it home, cleaned it up, bit of elbow grease to shift the egg yolk, lemon oil on fretboard, new 9 strings. You know what!? It's bloody brilliant fun I don't want to hand it over now:-)

really resonant,neck is slim and really decent, no sharp edges to the frets. Pick ups are surprisingly good, a bit thin sounding but better than I expected. Pics to follow

    I have an early 80's H2 Squier Bullet and not a bad box at all - same as below - don't know which you purchased - The neck on mine is far better than its price tag

    If you don't hand it over I hope the eldest will poach it
