No longer available at zZounds
A short-scale version of the popular Jag bass, the Squier VM Jaguar Special bass features a 30" scale length with single-coil and split single-coil pickups.

The Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass Special SS (short scale) puts classic Fender looks into a distinctively sharp-looking, great-sounding and super-versatile Squier bass model.

Features include a sleek offset-waist body and an ultra-slim fast-action 30" scale neck, with the added one-two punch of a booming split single-coil Precision Bass middle pickup paired with a growling Jazz Bass single-coil bridge pickup.

More than just a student model, this bass is perfect for players who will appreciate the comfort of a short-scale instrument. Superior tone, smooth playability, great comfort and fantastic value.

i needed a cheap bass to keep beside my desk, and liked the looks of this one.. yeah, i bought it because of the looks, sue me.. Anyway, when it arrived, I was impressed with the finish quality, and very surprised by how well this thing is put together.. The initial setup was pretty good, but i had to raise the string height on the E just a little, which also changed intonation, but that's all it required.. no big deal, considering some of the horrid setups i've seen on basses costing 4 times as much... Unplugged, it sounds good, and plugged in sounds even better. My only complaint isn't with the bass, but with the lack of cases and gig bags available for short scale basses... Come on zZounds, surely y'all can source affordable cases and bags for everything you sell.. hook us up!
