Squier Gary Jarman Signature Bass

[TransistorBassMan]

Not a Precision, not a Jazz, not a Mustang, not a Jaguar. Looks a little like the Bass V

Ooooohhhh.

No.

Not a pretty thing. Nice colour.

[mike 110]

Erm ..yuk

[sunburstjazz1967]

Never heard of him.

[NancyJohnson]

That's pretty horrible. Fender should just have gone a bit further and made a JagStang bass.

[Bigwan]

Oh that's fugly... Off to google Gary Jarman...

Edit: None the wiser...

...and not attractive in the slightest. Colour's OK...

[Roland Rock]

Not for me.

I had to Google Gary Jarman too. This exerpt from Wikipedia made me chuckle:

"In 2009, on very short notice, he played bass with Franz Ferdinand during two of their shows supporting Green Day when bassist Bob Hardy forgot about a wedding he had been invited to"

[uk_lefty]

I quite like it to be fair. No idea who the bassist is, maybe squire will even do a Sig bass for me soon... Bet they won't do it lefty though so no point

[Jean-Luc Pickguard]

The design process was probably similar to this

[Cato]

I've got the first couple of Cribs albums, which I like a lot. I suppose their biggest claim to fame is that Johnny Marr joined the band for an album & a tour.

Pretty surprised Gary's got his own signature model though, although they've been touring internationally for years, maybe they've got wider appeal than I realised?

It's hideous.

[Musicman20]

The Cribs are a legendary band in the indie scene. Good enough for Marr to join them for a while.

Ryan has a signature coming out too so I assume it's on the same basis as the matching Biffy Clyro sigs from a few years ago. The Cribs are pretty huge; it won't surprise me if they turn out to be quietly steady sellers.

[Musicman20]

The Sig guitar is more my thing.

[Cato]

Strangely I like that a lot more than the bass.

[bartelby]

That bass makes me think my eyes have gone funny!

[RhysP]

The body shape of that bass looks a lot like the old Fender Bass V to me.

[EssentialTension]

32" - unusually

[Stu-khag]

I like it. Had to google him. He's recorded with Robert pollard and Jim Fairchild so that's ok with me.

[Mister RLP]

I like it too. I shouldn't but I do. Mrs RLP doesn't. She doesn't like the shape of any bass.

[Jono Bolton]

I sort of like it, but not enough to drop any serious money on it. The bridge is the same as the one on the Classic Vibes/Matt Freeman/James Johnson basses so presumably it'll be a well made bass, even if it is a bit of an ugly duckling in the range.

[cocco]

It's ugly AF. I wouldn't touch it with yours lol.

[Cosmo Valdemar]

Looks like the old Fender Bass V body.

That's horrid. Half Mustang, half Jazzmaster? Mustmaster?
