I usually have not posted here however it is time Normally I play my MM 4 or my american deluxe jazz. Over the years I have played many diffderent basses however I have stuck with Fender from 1970 when I sarted playing. Recently I decided to try a 5 strinf and see if it fely comfortable. I have always opted for the american deluxe models wth the only exception being my 62 P bass, I love the feel of my Marcus Miller so I thought to go with the MM 5 srting, then again I thought it might be better to try a 5 before pulling the trigger on something I may or may not like. I saw the Squire vintage modified on the web sometime back however could not bring myself to go after the low end bass . Today I said why not as I can always give it to my son!! I bought the Sqire not expecting anything other than to get the feel of the five string, Upon opening the box I was surprized to find that when I checked the setup with the Petersen strobe I fond it to be dead on the action and neck where as good as some of the high end fenders I own Could this be a SQUIRE!!!! I have to eat crow here and say that this sqire is hard to beat and not just due to cost I was amazed how well it handled. I did however replace the capacitor with a Bumblebee paper and oil and this thing came alive PERIOD. For thos of you contemplating a Squire purchase don't make the mistake I made and play the name game, this bass is as good if not better than some of the fender basses out there. I am absolutly amazed at this instrument and would recomend it to novice and pro alike. Definatly a giant leap forward from the ealy Sqire series
