NBD: Squier Classic Vibe Precision

Nice bass

 

ha! I ordered the made in China seafoam one from g.c. and they sent me this Indonesian nato thingy. The more I play it, the better it is getting. Nice zippy crisp tone and ultra light, plus I always wanted me a green one.

 

I think that those are very cool. I get tempted form time to time. Nice score,

 

I've already said my fair share of nice things about this model. My opinion hasn't changed - They're an incredible value and sound amazing for the money you lay down for them. I'm sure you'll love yours, too.
Play the blocks off of it

 

Real nice! I've played some of those and found them to be way way better than I expected. When the right one with the right deal comes along, I'll add it to the stable.

 

That’s beautiful!
I adore Squiers. The China-made first-run CVs has been on my bucket list for a bit now. A month ago I got the new Squier Paranormal Jazz and I am impressed! Downsized my collection to 3, then 2, then 1 bass and guess which one stayed over a Road Worn P and an Am Pro P? The Squier.

Here’s a little snap before I swapped the Squier bridge for a Kluson high mass (and before I sold the RW P):

 

I Just grabbed one in walnut, lovin it so far, added a gotoh smoked chrome bridge and Jazz rosewood neck. I hope you enjoy your new CV as much as I have been enjoying mine, congratulations!

 

way cool!

looks great, OP! that it impresses you as a player is the absolute best. that it's cheap is a bonus! congratulations on your new instrument!

 

What are those funny looking rectangular yellow and orange thingies at the top of the PG??

 

Squier's have done a nice job in recent years. My Matt Freeman P-Bass sounded as good as my friend's Japanese P-Bass built in the 80's and those were great basses. He was surprised.

 

I had a look at their site and they look really appealing, with their own twist on traditional pickup design. The pricing is amazing too.

Re. the tree on the headstock, was the buzz just present with the open string (as I guess) or did it have some effect on buzzing when fretting, because of its tension?

 

Here’s my China CV!
