pqs Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) It arrived from Gak this morning via Fed Ex asked for a morning delivery and it was at home at 9 when I arrived after having a tooth out so that was good. Sounds to me like the Squire Jag short scale but more powerful have only has a quick check on my Marshall MB15 but it sounded to me just what I had hoped for the jag with balls. The pick ups are louder (even the jazz which is a weakness in the jazz), the bridge is more substantial the neck only has 18 freights compared to 20 but I never go that so it won't bother me Out of the box the neck seemed straight no sharp edges e string a little bright still I will get it set up and it should be good .

Will review it properly after next rehearsal Regards Peter Edited July 26, 2014 by pqs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theyellowcar Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Here we go! Looks lovely Peter! Is the finish slightly transparent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pqs Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 Yes it is, it looks to me and sounds really good. I may update the jag pick ups for them and then get rid of the Squier P it is an Affinity but fitted with some sort of SD pickups but sounds great.

theyellowcar Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Here's the deal breaker - obviously the body is scaled down, are the pickups scaled down too? Or are they standard size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pqs Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 The pick ups are the same size as my Seymour Duncan's if that helps. Enjoy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaners Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I got one in candy apple red yesterday. Fitted a set of flats on her today. This is a very very nice bass. Finish is just as good as my pawn shop mustang and my mij 62 reissue P, both twice the price. Fresh out of the box and the only thing I had to do was tune her up, realy feels nice to play .
