zZounds Gear Experts Say...

Despite its short 30" scale, the Mustang Bass cranks out fat tone like a champ. A single Fender-designed alnico split-coil pickup produces a round thump.

Overview

While small in stature, the Squier Classic Vibe '60s Mustang Bass packs a punch of incredible tone courtesy of the Fender-Designed alnico split-coil pickup. Small hands will appreciate the short 30" scale length and slim, comfortable "C"-shaped neck profile with an easy-playing 9.5"-radius fingerboard and narrow-tall frets. This throwback Squier model also features 1960s-inspired headstock markings, rich-looking nickel-plated hardware and a slick vintage-tint gloss neck finish for an old-school vibe.

"A True American Classic"

Verified Purchaser zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.

I've owned one before and had to sell it. Incredible instrument. I've always preferred short scale basses because they're so much fun to play. Had to buy this one. I like playing this bass more than my 2001 American Series Precision bass! You won't be disappointed. Perhaps some minor tweaking may be needed, but worth every cent.

Sound

It's a classic Mustang sound.

Ease of Use

The Mustang bass was originally made for younger players and students, but it has a serious professional following as well.

Quality

The only problem initially was rough fret ends which were quickly taken care of. Look for pro advice online as to how to do this.

Value

Because I owned one before, I feel this is worth the selling price.

Manufacturer Support

No contact with Fender about any concerns. Unless it's something out of my ability I'll handle it myself.

The Wow Factor

When I first saw the "Vintage Vibe" Mustang bass, it owned me.
