Squier Affinities no longer say "Affinity"??

[Rip Van Dan]

Not having "Affinity " on the headstock gives players plausible deniabuilty....

Funny thing is that the only Precision Bass I ever played that was comfortable for me to play (I'm a Jazz Bass guy), was my grandson's Squier Affinity P-bass with P/J pickups. After showing him a few things on it, I realized I was fairly comfortable with the wider neck. That's when I realized that the wide neck was a slim neck, similar to the thickness of my Jazz. So my aversion to wide necks is actually an aversion to thick necks. Funny that the least expensive Squier P-bass was the best feeling P-bass I have ever played and if I had to play a P-bass, that would be my choice to play.

Sonic is the new lowest price Squier. Affinity is a notch up from those in price.
Neither series has a label on them though AFAIK.

Actually the sonic series for Bronco was quite an upgrade. Better bridge, 38mm jbass sized nut and 21:1 ratio tuners that work quite well and only weigh a 8 grams more than hipshot ultralites. Plus more colours

I always joke that mine is so cheap you don't even get "recision", it's just a P bass.

Joking aside, it's got a straight neck, good action (anyone who can follow directions and operate feeler gauges can do a setup), sounds fine. I suppose fancier pickups would offer some kind of improvement. For the price (~$100 used) I'm more than satisfied.

I agree about the upgrade, if you don't consider the fact that there's not an Affinity Bronco anymore.
