squier korean jazz basses good or bad.

[the boy]

hi guys any info on korean bass guitars by squier. I know that the indonesians are more desireable than the chinese so how do the their korean cousins fare. Any info is greatly appreciated.

There's a thread here on Korean Squiers

To summarise, pretty good, but don't pay too much.

how much is too much for a good condition 98 korean jazz with good quality headstock logo mod. Its a sunburst with rosewood on maple neck.

£150?

That's all I have paid for each of my Squier (modded with logo etc) Jazz basses.
(Check my avitar for one of them!)

The very early Korean stuff had problems I believe.

If it plays nice then it's worth whatever you pay for it

All these three only cost £400 for the lot

I'd agree with that value at the moment. I have paid more in the past though.

That said, the current Chinese Vintage Modified and Classic Vibe Squiers are superb instruments for the price, and a S/H one at about £150 - £180 is almost unbeatable value for money.
