...... noticed a Fender Squier 'Jaguar' bass. Had some age to it, looked like it had been played; ie the 'newness' had worn off. The ticket said £99, got a feeling they might take an offer?

But do I [s]need[/s] want it? :unsure:

Even to ask that question, you KNOW you do. I love mine...

Aren't Jaguar basses short scale? (rinses mouth out with soap and water)

The 'Vintage Modified Jaguar Special SS' is - it is 30"

The normal 'Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass (wot mine is) is 34"

Do you not like shortscale basses? I wouldn't want to play one all the time (my main bass is 35" scale) but they're a lot of fun, and they do capture that thuddy 60s tone soooooo nicely.

..but back to the thread :rolleyes: ...do you know which model it is, mentalextra?

If it has block inlays, it will definitely be long scale. If it has dots, it could be either (the 'special' is 34" and the 'special SS' is shortscale)

...and have you bought it yet???

I'm pondering on going back tomorrow for another look. I dont remember it having block inlays. It was black, made in indonesia and it was covered in 'playing DNA' :D
