SQUIER JAG SHORT SCALE; ANY REVIEWS?
- Thread starter lbwdog
- Start date
I do like the Warheads. I'm going to have to build myself a nice 32" J Bass someday.
Not that I want to open a can of worms, but don't forget about the SX medium scale Jazz.
Dang i found this thing for $170.00 online, is it really that cheap?

It must be. Elderly Instruments has it for the same price. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
Can't wait to try one.
Im glad its passive, I think the Jbass control system is perfect for it. Also less expensive. Ive always had good experience with Squier basses and its been a few years since Ive had any GAS.
That seems to be the going price. When it was initially announced and labeled as part of the VM series, I was expecting to see a higher sticker.
Hey, I'm not complaining that it's around $170 instead of $200. That means more money for strings and beer.

Looks like we're going to have to wait. Buy Squier by Fender Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass Special SS (Short Scale) | 4 String Electric Bass | Musician's Friend
Will May 27 become the new December 25th? j/k

I got my ss jag from MF today- LOVIN IT! PUPS sound great together & isolated and best of all- NO NOISE- however either vol or the tone is dialed. Both pups up all the way gives it the classic jbass sound. Neck dimensions pretty much match my ss SX SPB57, which is exactly what I wanted. No gloss on the neck, nice & smooth. No paint issues (black), there are some miniscule indentations in the wood but if you aint lookin, you wont see em. Sorry I dont have a way to post pics or sound, but Im a happy short scale mu****er right now. Best $170 I ever spent.
Bump.
I'm curious as well. That is if someone is willing to pull the pickguard.
At that price I'll just buy one when I get the extra cash. Reviews for most things Squier are terribly one sided and rarely subjective at all here. Speak bad of Squier, you best to be wearin' that flame retardant suit with chainmail and an all encompassing force field. Can't wait to try one.
I have owned around 120 basses/ guitars most were basses but there have been a dozen or so guitars in my life , plus all the others i have played but not owned. I think I will be able to post a pretty in detail review and I will be judging it not at its price but at its function, if the strings are way off the poles I am going to complain about it.

So stoked
I was ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE I wanted the candy apple red one. After looking at those pics, I'm not so sure. that silver looks nice!
And no, I can't afford one of each.
Yet.
I am glad i ordered silver but there not in yet , if i got red it would already be here but I rather wait for the silver as thats what i really want.
I got a black one.
Love it. The neck feels great. Having a problem with it cutting out, but I think that's just the jack. The electronics are serviceable, but cheap. I'm planning on replacing them in a few days anyway.
I'll probably put a new bridge on the thing too.
