Sound: Truly the best of both worlds. The bass is similar in styling and playability of the jazz bass, but with the deep tones that pop of the P-bass. Also, this is a great bass for players who like a thin neck and short scale. I play in a few bands and the sound of this bass can carry through all of them. From indie and electro, to punk, to hardcore - it covers all the bases of underground music and more I am sure. My first bass was a P style that I felt was generic and I always had love for the look of the jazz bass. I compared the P-Bass to a Jazz bass in a guitar shop and found the jazz bass did not have the sound I was looking for. Still yearning for a different looking guitar, I tried the Jaguar - it was the best of both worlds. Feature: Unfortunately, this bass doesn't really come with any accessories. Sure, you get the allen wrenches you may need for regular care, but I've got tons of those. Even a gig bag would have been nice. Regardless, I was just happy to have this great sounding bass in my posession. Ease of Use: This bass is very playable. Thin neck allows for easier play. You might want to fool around with the tone nobs quite a bit and keep in mind you have 2 volume controls for the pick-ups... mix and match, figure it out, that's part of the fun of getting a new guitar. Quality: While this is not a true Fender, Squier has always put out a quality product in my opinion. Value: I have had some more expensive guitars that were not as great as this. Manufacturer Support: I haven't had any problems that I would need to contact Squier, yet. The Wow Factor: This guitar is a very sexy beast. Overall: While this bass lacks in accessories included, it is a great bass. I love it.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
