Ah, but it’s advertised as a Squire. They are more expensive.

All fakers, for how much???!!

Thanks for your replies. I have no experience of semi hollow electric basses, only Double Bass which has never been played at high volume, and had no drums to compete with. I’ve done plenty of gigs with acoustic guitars in large venues but always used a “feedback buster” in the sound hole. Might see if there’s any available locally for me to try out. Thanks again. John

Anyone gig with one of these regularly and at high stage volume? I’m looking at a long scale semi hollow for a new venture, and as the Lakland on here has recently sold, I’m considering a JC. Looking at and listening to reviews, the bass has a fairly good range of tone variation (although I tend to stick with the same tone settings throughout a set, varying finger position/attack to get some scope when needed, so not an issue). My main concern would be possible feedback, given that it’s a hollow body without centre block. So the question above is for those who play one at high band volume and your experiences. Thank you.

Best recording bass I own. Won’t gig it these days though as I find it heavy, even with a huge strap.

Very good sir! 😊

Doesn’t have to be exclusively Fender, but I can’t help but roll my eyes at their model naming. It always suggests to me that there is an alternative series. Professional Series: Amateur Series? Player Series: Just Looking Series? Black top: White behind? I guess there’s only so many times you can rebrand a P bass? 🙄
