MGR/Gary « Squier Precision Special Bass »
Published on 10/07/02 at 15:00purchased from Music Mall for $189.00
I like the P/J pickup combination, the feel of the Jazz neck on a P-bass body, and the look of the bass which is sunburst
I did not like the tuners (cheap!) and the action was too high. Also there was an annoying buzz at the 5th fret of D string. I replaced the tuners with Precision butterfly tuners and replaced the bridge with a Badass II bridge and reset the action
Nice rosewood fretboard and I believe an alder body but I could be wrong. The cord jack is cheap and comes loose a lot. Nice chrome knobs and good pickguard
After replacing the tuners and bridge, this bass sounds great. I currently run it through a ZOOM effects box into an Ampeg BA-115 amp. Great sustain and tone. Great harmonics and buzz is gone. My next step will be to replace PUP's with seymour duncan quarter pounders and jazz bass bridge PUP's
