do you also think that's a modified Squier?

Modified as in vintage modified series? if so, in the vm series the only white bass is the vmp, vintage modified precision.

If you mean if its a regular Squier that's been modified, who knows, great tone and player though, the funks in the fingers!

modified as in having been modified - I can't remember the exact name, Active Deluxe Jazz? They come in white with matching headstock, black ditto, sunburst without matching headstock. Shiny black ebonol fretboard, no markers. No pickguard. Popular pimping platform.

The bass in the video looks to me more like that Squier than like anything Fender is making.

It does look like one of those Squiers indeed, with the black fingerboard without position markers (ebonol on the Squier Active Deluxe Jazz Bass).
Most of the modifications done to it aren't too hard or expensive, except maybe the 12th fret position marker and the dot at the 5th fret, so who knows. The Squier might actually be 'worth it' (i.e. you don't go about investing hundreds of Pounds in upgrading a bass that originally cost close to nothing and is basically a turd. Those Squiers are actually pretty nice).

- front routing added to accommodate the control plate;
- pickguard added;
- black hardware instead of the regular chrome;
- position marker added on 5th and 12th position;
- Fender-logo added.

The way the fretboard shines does indeed look like the ebanol fingerboards of the DeLuxe Squiers. Same with the position of the bridge pickup (a bit closer to the neck than usual.
