  • Did I get a Diamond in the Rough?
Color: Natural Style: Jazz Bass
I bought this "Used-Very Good" for $300. That was not a very good description. When I pulled it out of the box, my jaw dropped. This thing is MINT! Not a blemish on it. The body wood is perfect. The neck is straight and true. The action is fantastic. And, it still had the plastic coverings on the pickguard, pickups, control plate, and tuners, and all the tags, including the factory tag. The one thing I found was a speck of polishing compound. Tuned it up and tried it out. It's not what I expected. It's better. Even though I haven't plugged it in yet, playing it revealed you can get nice, round bass tones, or a sharp slap sound. The action is good. The fit and finish on this one is fantastic. No mismatched wood, no frets needing filing, and the tuning pegs are nice and crisp. And the body is NOT light as some have mentioned. It's downright heavy! It rivals the weight of my 1969 Dan Armstrong! If I didn't know better, I'd swear I had a late 60's/early 70's Jazz Bass. I had an older friend who had one, and let me play it, and it certainly feels the same and plays the same. I thank the seller for sending me such a magnificent musical instrument. it is second only to my original Dan Armstrong. I have a 1992 P-Bass lyte as well, and I play it all the time, but this bass has been placed above it. I'll admit, the P-Bass Lyte is easier to play, but the sheer pinache of this piece outshines it. Always wanted an all-maple Fender. And, this FEELS and plays like a Fender. I've played other Squier basses. Some were OK, some were really good. This is the best one yet. And it only took 52 years. Am I gushing? I must be in love. Maybe I got a gem. EDIT: I finally brought it to a rehearsal. I got a Crossrock case for it and dragged it down there. I plugged it into my Behring BX4500 with a Peavey 1820 cabinet and we started playing. After the 3rd song the guys were commenting how good it sounded. Classic Fender Jazz Bass. My other basses have narrower necks, and the first few songs were tough, but I didn't have to switch. They couldn't believe what I paid for it. The Crossrock Tweed bass case fit so well it was like it was made for it. Perfect fit, no slopping around inside. I am quite well pleased with both. ... show more

  • A fantastic guitar for the price!
Color: Natural Style: Jazz Bass
I'm quite sensitive when it comes to the tone of a bass guitar, and I've returned items multiple times if they didn't meet my expectations. However, this guitar produces such exceptional sound that I've decided to keep it. It's truly outstanding.

  • Great bass for the money
Color: Natural Style: Jazz Bass
Nice squire bass designed by fender made in China or Indonesia. The first one, made in Indonesia, had a small crack in the neck pocket. Nothing major but I still asked fender what to do. They ask me to return it and did send me a new bass made China. The one made in China that was actually well better made compared to the one from Indonesia. Fret work was excellent. Still needed to get it setup by a luthier. Intonation, action, truss rod and pickup spacing needed some adjustment. ... show more

  • Right out of the box . . Playable and in tune.
Color: Black Style: Jazz Bass (LH)
A beautiful, well made instrument. Superbly air-packed around the entire instrument and well boxed. Such care. Thanks. B. A novice lefty Bassist. Great sound, too! Picked it for its ease of tuning.

  • Great value
Color: Natural Style: Jazz Bass
I received the bass in the mail a few weeks ago perfectly intact and ready to play. A couple things about the shipping though. It is packaged rather sketchily. Just a foam sleeve and a box big enough to fit it inside. Made me a little nervous opening it up, but there was not cosmetic or structural damage whatsoever. Second, the strings were slightly oily out of the box. Wasn’t a big issue since they cleaned up after a few weeks of playing anyways. I was also planning on replacing the strings with some Ernie Balls at some point too. Playability: This is a massive step up in playability even from my previous Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar bass. The high gloss neck is a turnoff for some, but I have had no issues with my thumb sticking anywhere in the neck. The inlays and binding also add a nice touch. One thing about the knobs is that the sound output isn’t linear when I turn them up. I feel that 50% of the sound increase only comes after the knobs are turned about 75% of the way up. Not a big issue at all and can’t really be expected at a bass in this price range. The tone is very clear and solid (for the most part). When the bridge pickup and tone are both all the way up, there is a noticeable buzz when plugged in at idle. The classic Jazz Bass sound is very present in this bass and is real fun to play with. Visuals: Great all around with the block inlays, binding, vintage neck finish color, and natural body grain. The one thing that stands out to me is that the neck is not the same color as the body. It’s more yellow than the finish covering the body. Again, something I only noticed when others were saying it looked great. Pairs great with a floral design neck strap (I’ve got a blue and white floral pattern). Construction Quality: Overall, this is very well built. It feels very similar to some Fenders I’ve played in the past. It seems that the neck is very high quality while the body is a pretty standard Squier. Nothing appears to be poorly engineered. Value: Can’t beat this price range for a Fender style Jazz Bass. There are definitely other basses cheaper than this, but not many for this price range that sound as good as this. A definite upgrade from previous Squiers I have played. ... show more

Great bass, but it was not for me. Returned it and received a prompt refund.
