pleasantly surprised by his cousin vintage modified Jazz Bass, I wanted to test it to see if we found the same ratio Q / P. ..
and although it is also a very good deal!

very clean finish, I saw no default, the bass was even properly set, no complaints.
except ... the holes of two potentiometers that are damaged (probably a little violent with a mounting nuts). but do not want to return it for that.

UTILIZATION

A round handle, not so far from that of my JB (admittedly a little thicker, but not the handle of lumberjack I had read in the reviews)
the action is set properly upon receipt, I found it really enjoyable to play.

a fairly consistent output level which easily saturate a preamp.

used the JB, I had to put my thumb mark on the neck pickup. Not possible here, so we'll resume my marks.
the position of attack (above the micro or near the bridge) can radically change the sound.

SOUNDS

Many sub (nothing to do with JB), but the sound remains clear and usable.
Nothing but empty, feel the bass in the body (the bass and bassist), probably the strings involved in this through-good distribution.

with a high EQ, you can attack other styles, but rather is made to rock, reggae, dub maybe, jazz.

I was much disappointed with the Duncan Designed pickups JB vintage modified, as I find the Fender Designed the latter is more serious.

while having a particular sound, it remains flexible enough not to be ridiculous in other areas as the "old rock" and can even give a more modern than I expected.

each style, but being a fan of its liabilities and heavy, I love this bass!

evening edition: with better strings, the probe is rounder, warmer, highs are more pleasant, it was worth it.

OVERALL OPINION

This precision TB is another very good deal in the range of Squier Vintage Modified!
precision as the standard meant nothing to me (Agathis body and micro average), as the JB (+ good microphones) and the TB are very good for their price!

little more: it is to taste, but I love her look
Same as studiocangé: a round yellow would have been more cosmetic ... does it come with time?
