Tricked Out Squier Club

[Gord_oh]

Yes you read it right TB, another useless club. But you did manage to click on it, so you must be interested right?

Post comments, pics, and specs of your modded Squier basses.

yes...there will be numbers.
:]

Ill start, I finished this thing last night.

it was in bad shape before, the pics dont show it as well:



after:





SPECS:
1992 MIK Squier Precision bass (I believe its Alder)
Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounders
Gotoh 201
3-ply Allparts pickguard
Squier Affinity bass knobs
Cherry Red Finish
Squier Affinity Tuning Machines
Fender 7250 roundwound strings
I redid the logo
...I think that covers it.

Let's see 'em TB!

How do you like those tuners? They look exactly like the set I removed from my own Squier. They slipped constantly.

[Gord_oh]

I noticed they were a little loose, so far so good.
If they have any problems Ill probably figure something out.

[Basshappi]

I'll play

2000-something Squier P-Bass Special - Lefty
Converted to fretless
Fully shielded, new pots and cap.
SD Basslines Hot Stacks
Warmoth Black pearloid pickguard

[Gord_oh]

FYI- ill update numbers after some more posts.

[J. Crawford]

I think this counts.

[Gord_oh]

i was waiting for you to chime in.
you need some more up to date pics though...

[Gord_oh]

im assuming if you post you want a number.

Not totally TRICKED OUT, but kinda unique. EMG's w/ creme covers (retrofitted) on my Squier II.

Thanks. The neck is to die for - I've considered a body swap.

I had the same exact one when I was 13 (first bass ever) and stupidly sold it about 10 years later. Then I just bought this one over the summer with the EMG's already in thanks to a fellow TBer. Plays and sounds much nicer than my original, but looks identical.

The creme PU covers were my personal touch...

[DutchDude]

Oooh this is my kind of club.

I have 2 Squiers, one VM Precision and one Standard Precision.

The VM got pup and bridgecovers, a gotoh 201, Labella flatwounds, Gotohtuners, ctspots, a tort pickguard and a thumbrest.
The Standard has a gotoh 201, pupcover, a thumbrest, new cap and straplocks.







So I think I qualify for a number, don't I

[selowitch]

I thought EMG-P pickups didn't have pole pieces....

[squashedOpossum]

I don't need a number, but I'd love to show mine off. 2007 Affinity with a new neck and tuners (don't know exactly what they are -- I bought them as a set used at Corner Music here in Nashvegas), black pickguard, Gotoh 201 bridge, series/parallel switch on the neck pup volume. Proudly still using the stock pups and wiring (except where noted).



with my new Acoustic B20. Unbelievable amp.

[J. Crawford]

My most up to date one. Im looking at getting a VM Jazz and making my own Marcus Miller sig. I love making my renditions of Fender instruments.

[Gord_oh]

im adding chrome pup and bridge covers to mine, i think it will make the red paint job pop a little more.

[Gord_oh]

just got another of ebay, my next project.
ill post pics when i get it home.
black squier pbass w/white guard, loaded.
everything but a neck!
plan on putting a VM jazz neck on it.

going to be sweet...

This is an awesome group! I recently bought a 2001 Squier Affinity P bass off of a friend's friend for $50. I had it sent home a long with parts from Stew-Mac and GC so I can trick it out. It's a blonde/cream colored bass, bought a black pickguard, new gotoh bridge, chrome knobs, DiMarzio Split P pickups, and Fender bridge and p/u covers.
