I'd pick the black one personally, but both look good and Squier's come a long way quality-wise in the last 10 years or so. I was amazed when I got my VM Precision last year; I expected it to be good enough to try out BEAD tuning for a while but then end up needing replacing with another MIM when I was sure I liked it, but it's turned out to be an absolutely great little bass, and totally gig-worthy.[/quote]
I've heard that the latest Squiers (CV and VM series) are just as good as the MIM Fenders... don't know how true that is?
The black one is great, but I've had my heart set on the vintage white one since I first saw it... looks just like a mid-70's. Mmmmm
What's your take on the latest Squiers? Would you be willing to gig them without a backup?
