Squier Affinity Series Precision Bass, Black, Maple Fingerboard

The best instruments are fender guitars. Live and loud standard.

I am a guitar player and home recordist. My extended loaner Precision bass went back to its owner recently and I needed to replace it. I ordered the black with maple fretboard version. I fully expected to have to setup and adjust this and even had files, sandpaper and other tools at the ready. It show up nearly perfect. The only thing I had to do was tiny tweaks to 2 saddles for intonation. Everthing else was exactly where I would have put it with my setup. The neck is straight with a tiny bit of relief. It plays great. It also sounds really good unplugged which was a surprise. I am completely satisfied with this bass and I'm sort of amazed at what you get for the price. I did opt for the maple fretboard because, in my experience, whatever they use for rosewood on non-maple fretboards on cheaper guitars is often less than stellar. Maple seems to be constantly better quality. This bass sounds, plays and records great.

Very well made Precision bass. And way less cost than one from the Fender parent company. Very happy with this guitar.

I bought this bass as a platform to mod. The fretwork isn’t great. I had several sharp fret edges I had to file. As it came, it was nearly unplayable. I had to set the neck and adjust the string height. After all of that, it’s a decent bass. I’m going to replace the pick guard, all of the electronics and the tuners over time. If you don’t know how to set up a guitar, either pay a local shop to set it up, or just buy one from them.

You will need to set it up obviously like every other instrument regardless of the price a set up is always a given. You have to customize your instrument and tailor it to your needs. I upgraded my saddles to brass because it’s my preference. The pick ups are great. The finishing and detailing of the bass is great too. In my case, no sharp frets, no high frets no buzzing. Something I had not experienced before in the affinity series although I don’t own none anymore, except this one.

Fender lives up to their name yet again. Wonderful bass for beginners up to experienced players. Sound is clean through multiple amps and di systems. Neck is well made and no bends or deformations to be found.

Major letdown after hearing how great it would be for a beginner. Neck so warped I did not want to risk breaking the truss rod, so I sent it back. Neck is totally UNFINISHED. Looks like something that wasn't completed during the manufacturing process. Sharp edged frets and would need work to smooth them out. Save some more money up and buy a better guitar. My Hofner Ignition Bass only cost me $350, is completely finished and plays like a charm with proper adjustments. Don't waste your money or break your Neck (truss rod).

Great sounding pickup's. I purchased this bass as a spare and after playing it i will be using it along with my other axes. I have been playing for over 60 years and this bass sounds as good as my 1964 Pression Bass, I love the way it plays.

Hace un par de horas me llegó este Squier lo estuve probando con una interfaz y suena como un bajo de gama alta, las pastillas que trae son muy buenas resaltando graves y un toque de agudos brillantes, lo compare con un Ibanez sr300 (Activo) y es mucha la diferencia en construcción y sonido, los materiales del Squier son un poco más finos y detallados que el Ibanez en cuanto a las pastillas, el Squier es pasivo pero no por eso menos potente su sonido es muy versátil, no satura el sonido y lo más importante no mete ruido de fondo como otros bajos del mismo precio, a la hora de tocar es muy cómodo. Les dejo unas fotos como referencia de estos dos

suona benissimo. strumento intonato, setup "ready to play" già all'arrivo.. vale il prezzo e anzi forse varrebbe anche di più. occhio che essendo un PJ non è da fighette, pesa, magari non come un Rick. ma non è un basserello leggero e plasticoso. Roba per bassisti veri molto BEHS...

Ürünün görselinde Endonezya malı olan bas gitar var, gönderilen ürüm Çin malı. Açıklamalarda bu bilgi yazmıyor.

Love this bass! Really happy with how it feels and sounds. It's long as heck but I am having a blast playing and learning on it.

Das Instrument ist vor Allem für den Preis richtig gut.
