Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (7 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great sounding and playing bass. Love the looks. I would recommend it to anyone especially if you are playing classic rock. It"
Sound: I'm very pleased with sound of this bass. I has a definite P-Bass sound. Good tone and sustain. It has a very bright sound with the maple neck. For an inexpensive bass I am very happy with sound. Ease of Use: The bass plays well. Factory setup for the action is a little high which is not a problem. I'll set the action up to suit me after the bass settles in. Quality: Well made, tight fit on the parts. Only complaint I have is with the chrome plating, not the best quility on the tuners. May polish out I haven't tried to yet. Value: Great value for sound verses cost. Manufacturer Support: Haven't needed support. The Wow Factor: I like the color of the body and how the maple neak with the vintage headstock looks. I didn't need this bass but the looks are what sold me on it. I was skeptical about buying a Squire bass but, glad I did. I am very happy with the bass. Overall: Replace it. It has a single coil pickup so don't be disappointed if you get some noise in certain envirorments that's typical of single coils. Not a problem in most cases.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Dont let the name discourage you- It's a keeper !"
Sound: The pickups and pots in this Bass are fantastic. When you take into account the price of this bass, you could pay a lot more and still not get the sound this bass can produce. Feature: Volume and Tone, whatmore do you need for straight ahead Bass playing. Ease of Use: If you can play. Quality: This bass is hands down made as well as most bass guitars you will find. Dont give the American Fender Jive I aint paying $800.00 more for a name on a headstock. If you choose to thats ok, but dont tell how musch better yours is. Value: You cant do better at twice the price ! Manufacturer Support: Great Squier website with support. The Wow Factor: Great looks and finish. Overall: I will keep it.
