The all-new Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass Special SS (short scale) puts classic Fender looks into a distinctively harp-looking, great-sounding and super-versatile Squier bass model. Features include a sleek offset-waist body and an ultra-slim fast-action 30” scale neck, with the added one-two punch of a booming split single-coil Precision Bass® middle pickup paired with a growling Jazz Bass® single-coil bridge pickup. More than just a student model, this bass is perfect for players who will appreciate the comfort of a short-scale instrument. Superior tone, smooth playability, great comfort and fantastic value.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

A good bass, and a great deal...
There are some bassists who will hear the words Squier, and the words short-scale and be put off. This little bass dispells concerns about sound and quality right out of the box. I have the dysfunctional inability to leave instruments alone, so the first thing I did was a set-up with the addition of some DR Sunbeams. I played it through my little Eden 200W combo practice amp, running the amp flat, with about half gain and about 1/4 the master volume. What a shock. Good, clear tone, NO HUM, and the DUH realization that this sounds like a Fender bass should. Just for the hell of it, I dialed out the bridge pickup. The split-coil p-bass pickup sounds great. Fat and growly, but with surprisingly bright highs. Good P-Bass tone. As others have mentioned, the bridge pickup just adds color and really doesn't have the bite that my Jazz Bass has. I like this bass well enough that I see a Duncan Vintage Jazz bridge PU in its future. A 500 tone pot wouldn't hurt either.

Surprisingly righteous
Having read a ton of reviews on this bass I found one today at my neighborhood guitar store. It was not heavy overall or neck heavy. The action was sweet. In fact, it played like butter. Plugged in? This cheap-o sounded as good as my P-bass. Since I am having bits of arthritis or carpal tunnel issues I need to lighten the load. This short scale Squier is going home with me next week.

Looks great, plays well
I couldn't pass this up when I saw the price. The looks are great and the silver black combo, especially on the head-stock, really made me love it on looks alone.
When I read the reviews from others it sounded like this was a good deal since it played well for them. I can say it does play nice, the pickups sound good. The neck feels a little dry but that's nothing that can't be taken care of.
The bass is light, neck is easy to play and its very comfortable. My first bass was a Fender Musicmaster short scale and I've always wanted another SS bass and this fits the bill.
I'd say pick one up while the price is low, its definitely worth the money.
