Jonnyboy Rotten Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I have come across a special edition Squier Precision Chrome and Black Edition for sale: I have a Squier one already but I am seriously considering swapping it for this as I love the colour matched headstock, jazz neck and option of jazz pickup. Are they any good? Will it be much of a difference/step up from my Squier Affinity Precision? Anyone got one or played one can give some thoughts and comparisons of where in the squier line up it sits. If not I will wait and get a VM jazz or summat.

ras52 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Yum yum. I hadn't seen this before, but new it seemed to be in the VM price range, so I'd expect it be a step up from an Affinity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 This model is now a few years old, maybe 2005/6 I think and before the VM CV ranges. I think its just a Squier Precision Precial with matched headstock and mirrored scratchplate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkin Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Mmm...I thought this was a special edition in the 'standard' range, so in between the Affinity & VM ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] IMO they're far better than the affinity's and not that far (if at all) behind the VM's. I've owned both the Special and the VM in the past, there's nowt wrong with the special if you wanting that P/J sound, sadly that pup combination didn't work for me and I used mine with the J pup constantly off. Decent basses all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
