derrenleepoole Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Just treated myself to one of the new Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar short scale basses Just needed a fretted shortie, and these seemed to fit the bill. That, and I was itching for a new bass. So far the impressions are very good. The fit, finish and weight are superb. The neck is lovely and slim and very comfortable which is what I like. The p-bass pickup is great, with loads of output - more than I was expecting. The jazz pickup is quite weak actually by comparison though. No worries, I'm planning a bit of modding anyway. I'd read and seen reviews stating that the SS version electronics weren't up to par with its bigger brother, but with a bit of TLC, this could be a great bass with loads of balls. First gig Saturday with it, let's see how I get on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blademan_98 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 That looks cool! I do like the Jaguar body shape. Do you mind saying what it cost? No matter if you don't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
