Crappy Quality?

[thebasskid]

Just played a 70's vintage mod squier JB? I've heard the squiers can't hold a tune and have issues, but i LOVE the feel and look.... Opinions?

If u'd used the search button before making a new topic, you'd have seen that the vintage modified series get a lot of praise around here.

Not to jump on the "use the search function" bandwagon, but there have been several threads on Squier basses including this very recent one.

Is a Squier Bass Really That Bad?

What ill-informed nonsense ! Squiers have been top-notch for quite some time. The VM and CV models especially, are great instruments for little coin and easily hold their own against MIMs and in some cases MIAs.

+1 on the search and other threads, and whoever told you that about Squiers doesn't know what they are talking about.

what everybody else has said. Stay away from the gear snobs,and do some research.

Fender has really pulled the Squier brand up a few notches in the last couple of years. So much so that I actually bought one (VM Jaguar) and play it right along side my MIA's. Its a fine instrument in every sense.
