Matt Freeman Squier Sig!!!!!

[ScarletKnight71]

It feels exactly the same. It's a CV without the sticker.

It feels exactly the same. It's a CV without the sticker.

And in a much nicer colour.

Cheers. Im very tempted to get one now

Is that a gloss clearcoat on the neck/fretboard? And is it tinted or at least darker than the maple on the VM models?

Don't know who Matt Freeman is, but this looks a lot like the Roger Waters sig. IMO, a black/maple P-Bass with a black pickguard is not a Signature bass: it's an industry standard.

+1

Yes, it's clearcoated. If you've seen/felt the Classic Vibe 60's, it's exactly the same tint and feel.

Just got an email saying it was here at my university, but i cant pick it up till after 6?...what kinda rule is that...and the wait continues

I actually have not, but I think I can make an educated guess.

Just got her a little bit ago...the neck is really quite reasonable, i was expecting thick considering i have 3 jazz basses...but its really not bad at all, looks great and feels even better really comfortable. I'm really quite pleased...gna do the set up a little bit later and....
let the fun begin

It looks fantastic.

I don't like P necks but the CVP neck is the best, or at least most comfortable that I have ever played. It's very close to a Jazz and if I didn't have the jazz neck I would be happy with this neck.

I just ordered one of these. I had no idea who Matt Freeman was, and I'm not really a fan of punk, but I loved the look of this bass. I was wanting a P bass to go along with my Fender jazz. I love the vintage looking white color with the tinted maple neck. Just a great looking bass and I have been impressed with the quality of the new Squier basses. It should be here by Thursday and I'll post some pics then. If anyone knows of (or has any) videos of the how this thing sounds I'd love to see it.

Just got the call from the local dealer that both the white and black Freeman Sigs have arrived! Now to choose.......

Pete Wentz wouldn't know punk if even if Sid Vicious hit him across the face with his P bass.
Note:
Pete and Sid are probably two of the worst bass players of all time.

I seriously like Wentz's tone, though.

Bass came in yesterday......BEAUTIFUL. This thing is awesome. The neck is gorgeous and the setup was pretty perfect. Running my hand up and down the side of the neck is smoother and softer than most American standards. played it through some headphones coming out of my Zoom B2.1u and it sounds great. Can't wait to get home tonight and play it loud through my 410. Seriously, I can't find a flaw on this. Pics to come tonight...

I'm very curious too... I'm looking at a new P maybe but don't wanna spend too much cash. I do want a maple fretboard though and this seems to be the only split coil P in the Squier gamma that has one. Plus the white. I like the white. A lot.

The amber VM P bass has a maple fretboard.

Right, forgot about that one. But I like the vintage frets and gloss neck
