Squier Vintage Modified Precision Bass fretless 3-Color Sunburst
Product no: 9000-0005-8933 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

Reportedly, this fretless Precision Bass is a Squier novelty. It is part of Squier's Vintage Modified series and has a trusty 3-colour Sunburst finish. This guitar offers a wayward combination of Precision Bass punch (thanks to its split single coil) and the melodious warmth of a fretless instrument.

Vintage Modified Precision Bass fretless

Newbies will probably need to take some time to get acquainted with fretless playing, although it is made slightly easier by the white position inlays on the laurel fretboard, which ensure that you won't lose your way during some serious jamming. The C-profile neck allows for comfortable playing and the vintage-tinted high-gloss finish gives it a neat look. The tortoise pickguard is another one of its striking features. This really is a distinctive instrument at an attractive Squier price!

The Squier brand

The most famous Fender guitars are the Precision and Jazz bass guitars and the Stratocaster and Telecaster electric guitars. Many manufacturers have imitated these in different price ranges. In order to be able to provide a reliable and attractive alternative for beginners, Fender started their subsidiary Squier in 1982. Squier guitars and bass guitars are built according to specifications by, and under supervision of, Fender.

Wrote the following about Squier Vintage Modified Precision Bass fretless 3-Color Sunburst

Met witte stippen (rondjes) op de hals is het toch gemakkelijker spelen maar niet te krijgen mijn idee, heb het volgende gedaan neem een A4 wit papier stop dit in een A4 laminierfolien (plastic) laat dit door het apparaat lopen (warm) en druk vervolgens met een perforator de nodige rondjes er uit met een beetje houtlijm op het rondje en druk deze voorzichtig op de hals even drogen laten en je kunt er gewoon op spelen en de rondjes blijven op de plaats zitten dit is mijn oplossing

Ik heb deze bas gekocht omdat ik wat variatie wilde tijdens optredens.
Geweldig zware sound maar lekker licht van gewicht. Speelt verrassend makkelijk, maar je moet je vingers wel op precies de goede plek leggen anders is je noot niet helemaal zuiver.
Goed gebouwd, ik heb nog geen foutjes kunnen ontdekken.

Let op!
Wil je slappen? neem dan sowieso geen precision en al helemaal geen fretloze.

Dit is nu mijn vaste bas vanwege de sound en het gewicht.
Ik heb nog een modified fairlane die ik alleen voor slappen gebruik

Ik heb veel behoorlijk (dure) bassen in mijn bezit en ik wilde eens een fretloze proberen. Ach... een Squier van 300,- is toch leuk om even uit te proberen? Maar het blijkt een beest van een bas te zijn. Door de lijnen op de hals viel de overgang van gefret naar ongefret mee. De (kunststof) toets speelt heerlijk; de bas is licht en daardoor voor uren speelplezier zonder rugklachten.
Maar het is vooral het geluid van dit goedkope basje dat mijn andere bandleden doet verzuchten dat ik voortaan alleen maar deze Squier mag gebruiken. Ongelofelijk mooi geluid voor zo weinig geld.
Enig minpuntje: door de lichte body hangt hij niet echt lekker in balans.
