Squier Classic Vibe Club

[A-Step-Towards]

I think it was a great deal, too! But I'm biased because it's gettin' delivered to my front door for $202.50! I was waiting for someone to outbid me in the last 2 seconds (as usual) ...but it never happened. Looks like I'll qualify for the CV club in a few days.

Good job! so glad a TB'er got it i saw it had 1 bid of 199.99$ and i seriously sat there looking at what i could sell to buy it since i had just got a great deal on a surf green tom delonge strat

but for 202.50$ thats really good it looked new

congrats ubnomnar! You'll love it.. Looks brand new.. great deal!

Tone alert: Replace the pots with full size 250K pots and .047 capacitor under your control plates.

Please trust me on this one. It will make a world of difference in improving the CV '53 Pbass tone.

Done and done!
I ordered and installed a wiring kit from Guitar (Bass) Parts Resource last October, along with an SD Quarter Pounder.

I managed to cram it all into the cavity without needing to remove any wood. It's a good thing too, as I neglected to check the fit before I lined all the cavities with copper foil!

I can't say if the pots and cap made a difference because I replaced the pup as well, but it sounds 200% better to me.

Count me in! I am a CV owner twice over now. I kept the 60's P for a week and took it back to GC in exchange for the CV Jazz. I just couldn't get used to the neck even though I loved the bass. Totally digging the Jazz though!! I'm so happy I made the exchange.

I'm really getting the urge to put a rosewood board, blocked or blocked and bound neck on my CV....heresy? If I do it wont be for a while, or I will build a new one from parts.....

now i need a pickup and a tortoise or black pg.

and after some reasearch i think i go for a dimarzio dp122 cream
the natural one is going to be my 80s metal bass
while the sonic blue also gets a tortoise and becomes my choise for blues.
it has some TIflats on it and just sounds so sweet.

 

[Professor Jones]

Anybody knows if CTS pots drop right in the Jazz CV control plate ? And do the stock knobs fit well on CTS pots ?

[EagleMoon]

If you guys want a number PM me. I'm losing track of who has basses and who doesn't.

She's a beaut!

 

[king_biscuit]

Wow, look at the flame in that neck

 

[skull73]

Thanks guys,

I really like it very much. The sound sits so well in the bandmix (guitar, bass, drums). Just awsome.

Do any of you know which strings come with the CV basses in stock?

cheers,
ralf

btw, I have a CV 50s P too, and although it doesn't have as much flame as yours, it is a wonderful bass, and an absolute steal for the money!

My CV 50's P maybe gone tomorrow i am selling it to fund a active bass purchase , the guy who is buying it is a family friend and asked if i had a good bass for his 12 year old son i think my CV will be an excellent start for him.

 

[DutchDude]

Seems Squier is using those flamed necks some more.
I have a special so it's slightu offtopic...but what the heck

Very nice! My jazz has a really nice flamed neck as well.

You can be member #21 since no one else has PM'ed me.

 

[EagleMoon]

I know there's got to be more people out there with these great basses.
