Squier Classic Vibe Precision bass
« on: October 10, 2012, 05:56:59 AM »
What do you guys think of these? I've heard pretty decent things about some of Squiers other more recent basses. These at least look nice.

  I tried one of these in store and I was very impressed. Very nice regardless of brand or price point. for $199 you can't go wrong.

you should buy one . i think they are pretty nice and have a nice fat neck if you like those. the price on that one is really good.

Yeah, I should have bought that one. Looked great in that color, too!

Great, great basses - probably the best Squier has made since their original batch back in 81/82(?). I've had the 50's Precision and the 70's Jazz in the recent past and now have the Fiesta Red Precision Vibe. I actually prefer it to my MIA P. Get one.

Squier is making some nice stuff.  My Bronco is a very nice bass, superb neck, and with a Gretsch pickup, killer sound.

That is nice but the Gretsch PUP and V8 sign make it a knockout!

Thanks.  The poly finish on that neck is satin, and it's really a pleasure to play.
