Squier Mikey Way Mustang Electric Bass

No longer available at zZounds
Adorned with a dazzling silver-and-black finish and the signature of My Chemical Romance bassist Mikey Way, this short-scale bass delivers vibrant tones.

Squier introduces what is surely one of its most distinctive signature bass guitar models ever in the striking short-scale form of the Mikey Way Mustang Bass. Designed with the input of the nimble My Chemical Romance bassist, it takes the classic Mustang Bass and amps it through the roof with a dazzling large-flake Silver Sparkle finish with black racing stripes, a single seismic humbucking pickup with a black cover, and a black headstock with Way's signature on the back.

Other features include a comfortable short scale (30 inches), basswood body, maple neck, 9.5 inch-radius rosewood fingerboard with 19 medium jumbo frets and parchment dot inlays, three-ply pickguard (black-white-black), black numbered volume and tone controls knobs, string-through-body bridge with four individually adjustable saddles and vintage-style chrome tuners.

I originally wanted a Mark Hoppus Signature Jazz Bass but no one sells it in the finishes that I want. This Bass Guitar stands out like no other. Very unique finish for starters. The sound on it is great and it maintains tune very well. I'd be so bold as to say it's an Underdog in the Bass Guitar world
