Right. Stand by."No pics…no bass" is pretty much the rule around the entire forum.

I can't recall if I've already joined this club, but just in case here's a pic of three of my Squiers. I have a few more Squier guitars and basses but these three get most of my use these days.
All three are modded. The Jag has a custom made John East preamp (vol/blend, neck B/T/B and bridge B/T/B). The Jazz 5 has been modded to a '62 tribute. The Bronco has been Frankenstined with a coil tapped trim ring switch (series/parallel/neck coil/bridge coil) on a GFS lipstick Humbucker in the P Bass sweet spot, tied into a PreErnie Ball Stingray preamp and fitted with a Hipshot narrow spaced 4 saddle bridge covered with a P bass ashtray and strung with La Bella White tapes (its a tone monster).

Here are my 2007 Standard series PJ Special; more recent Affinity J Bass; and the new '14 Affinity Precision PJ. All stock. Wouldn't trade any of them.
Am I in?

I gots one too!!! Her name is Veronica.
Here she is with her new control plate (and full size pots)
With GHS Precision Flatwounds, 45 to 105s
I have one of the first new versions of the VM 70s. I think they started early August 2013. I bought this at the end of August, so this bass was maybe 2 weeks old at the latest. Fresh off the boat, basically...

I have that exact bass!
Swapped out the pickups and it quickly became my main player.
I used the Duncan Quarter Pounder for the P and the Hot Jazz for the J.
That way the J pickup is cleaner and "clankier".
I use them in all of my Squier PJ's actually.
The middle one now looks like this however:
Please count me in...Bought this Squier Steffi Stephan Vintage Jazz Bass V used as a Backup Bass, 6 Months old. Arrived today. So far I am very pleased. Bass has a very good Setup, no Deadspots and sounds like a Jazz Bass should. The B-String fits into the other Strings, but (to be honest) I run it through my Tonebone Bassbone with the 3-Way Preamp/EQ of Ch.2. Thats what its for, I guess
Strings are quiet dead, but I've ordered a Twin Pack of the D'Addario XL170-5. I don't mind about the Graphics. It is there ..ok. But I like a White Jazz with a Maple Fretboard and Matching headstock
Craftmanship ist good. Fretwork is also done well and I like the high Gloss Neck and Fretboard...
