Squier Classic Vibe 2019

- Start date
Been check carefully on the image, the tuning mechine are different than mic CV bass. Also different than current VM bass tuning machine. It more look like Aliexpress stuff.
Skunk strip return. Both mic CV 60p and CV 60J has no skunk strip which great copy the Fender Pre CBS concept. I suspect this new Indonesia made CV bass are share some part from current VM bass.
Vintage style bridge are bonus on the new CV bass which you can direct install third party bridge without modified and redrill screw holes like MIC CV bass.
Thumb rest are gone.
Narrow Tall Fret wire !!!! Seriously ?!?! Been play Fender Am Pro bass, I really love the Narrow Tall Thin fret.
I believe Squier bass lover will happy If the chrome pickup and bridge cover are standard accessory on new CV bass.
Edit.
The vintage bridge just a copy piece, not Fender vintage bridge. First , the Saddle are not nickel, second, the intonation adjustment screws not equal length as original Fender vintage bridge. Maybe the saddle screw are different too, just too small hard to check.

I really want that Bass VI. And a universe of chorus and flanger effects.
Sunburst P body and a Jazz neck, please! I wonder when STRAToshere will get parts....
Have we heard if the VMs are coming back or not?
Considering these are priced $50 below the Chinese Classic Vibe line from prior years and a few dollars above the most recent Vintage Modifieds, and they have features and styling of both, I'm thinking they just consolidated the lines into one.
That pic looked like it had 70s spacing.
If the 70s Jazz does have 70s spacing, I will be curious as to what effect it has on the GL Jazz sales.
Yeah good point, Squier now literally has a lineup of classic instruments and contemporary ones that slot above the entry Affinity stuff. I would think that leaves Fender with a hole overall at the $499 price, since the Player series starts over six hundred bucks.
Is it just me, or do the '60s and '70s jazzes shown have the same pickup spacing?
Finally a lefty Squier P! I... may... buy one. I don't need one... but that is actually affordable.
The daphne blue one does, but to my eyes the other colors don't.
I need to try to track some down in the wild.
... the Daphne Blue Jazz Bass is Funk-Tastic ... it may become a custom modding base ... waiting for the StraTosphere to call ...

Likes guitars that tune good and firm feelin women
Maybe used prices on the original run can come back down to earth now
I love the Precision. If it sounds as good as the Fiesta Red one I had I might buy one. There was a magic that happened when I put Chromes on it.
