Value & Tone = This Bass Rocks

All the features of a great Precision without a huge price tag. Light body, good finish, GREAT fretwork, fabulous tone, hardware is much better than I expected.

nice "precision" sound

I did not expect that a squier p-bass would sound like a real vintage one, but believe me, it did!
I play and own a few american p basses and to me this bass sounds just as good, or even better!
Nice look to, really 70s.

Me-N-My-P...Squier Bass

What a nice bass for the price . Even if you don't know a lot about setting up a bass guitar there are several great websites for that .

This bass guitar is made of good quality woods from the body to the neck and fretboard , surprising for a bass at this cost . Sure you will have to tweak this and that , like the neck truss rod , and if the pick guard screw holes strip ( like the one I got ) it's an easy fix to stick in a tooth pick and break it off inside the stripped screw hole and that's that .

Action is an easy fix after making sure the neck is at the proper angle .

Intonation is easy too with a the right sized allen wrench . Paint job on mine was super nice with it's brilliant candy apple metallic pearlesque look , yep it's sexy . Solid bottom end sound on the stock pups is cool for me .

I have played it on a Yamaha 100 watt x-tor amp and was really pleased , at home I have it set up for recording through my GNX4 I bought from Sweetwater , through it it sounds super . I use the SVT tube amp modeler with the 8x10 Ampeg cab , sounds really close to the real deal .

I play several instruments and this one is a winner for the price . If your resourceful , this is the guitar for you . If money is a non-issue this is not for you.

Our Customers Say...

One thing I really admire about Sweetwater is that every customer is treated well, whether they're purchasing something for $10 or $10,000. You don't find that at other places. We consider Sweetwater a partner.
