Volume Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) Alas - I've succumbed to a case of New Year's GAS and need to clear a space on the rack. So - I'm reluctantly offering for sale my Squier Vintage Modified Mustang. Indonesian-built in 2011, it's equipped with Duncan Designed Pickups - and through bridge stringing. It's finished in Black, with a maple neck and board. Being a short-scale instrument, it has 19 medium Jumbo frets - it's strung with Fender 5250XL strings (with plenty of life left in them), and is currently set-up with a nice mid-to-low action. The short scale, and butter-smooth action really easy and comfortable to play, and the Duncan pups (and minimalist Master Volume and Tone nob setup) provide a surprising spectrum of tones - it sounds great with fingers or a pick, slapped or tapped... I replaced the original headstock logo, and swapped the stock 3 ply scratch plate with a mirrored one - if I can find the original in the coming few days, I'll happily include it with the bass. Condition-wise, the bass is at least a 9/10... I can't find a mark on it aside from a fingerprint or two. Here's some specs and a little blurb from the Fender site; "A truly classic Fender® bass guitar model from the mid-1960s returns in the sleek, short-scale form of the Squier Vintage Modified Mustang Bass. The instrument honors its 1966 ancestor with a basswood body finished in Black or Three-color Sunburst, 19-fret maple neck and 30 scale perfect for players of all kinds who appreciate the comfort of a short-scale instrument. Other features include a Duncan DesignedTM split single-coil pickup, three-ply pickguard, chrome tuners and distinctive Mustang Bass four-saddle bridge. Superior tone, smooth playability, great comfort and fantastic value. - Body: Basswood - Body Shape: Mustang® - Series: Vintage Modified Series - Neck: Maple - Fingerboard: Maple - Fingerboard Radius: 9.5 inch - Frets: 19, Medium Jumbo - Scale Length:30 Inches - Nut Width: 1.5 Inches - Hardware: Chrome - Tuning Keys: Standard Open-Gear Tuners - Bridge: Strings-Thru-Body with 4 individually Adjustable Saddles - Pickups: Special Duncan Design Split Single-Coil Mustang Bass Pickup - Controls: Volume, Tone - Unique Features: 30 inches Scale Length, Black Dot Position Inlays, Black Numbered Volume and Tone Control Knobs, Synthetic Bone Nut I can have the bass shipped out Worldwide via UPS, securely packaged within a hardshell Gator case - all included in the asking price If you have any questions, by all means let me know via PM and I'll get back to you ASAP Edited January 24, 2019 by Volume Item has now sold - added the word 'SOLD' to the product title, as per Basschat regulations 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clivem Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Do these have a 7.25" neck radius like a vintage Fender MIJ, or 9.5" like the most recent Fender MIM? Where are you located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volume Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 @Osiris - reply incoming @Skezza - The bass comes with a Gator Hardcase, in near-perfect condition, with lockable clasps. I haven't found the black scratchplate yet - but would be happy to ship it on to the perspective buyer once found. Trades-wise - I'm all set at the moment, so am looking for a straight sale at the moment. Thanks! Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
