I have played many electric bass guitar and found a lot of basses in my time with 20 years experience .
The Squier Vintage Modified Jazz bass 70'S is definitely and good one of my top favorites bass.
This one has a very clean and brigth sound that is both looks and sounds great.
I plugged this into a 300 watt Mark Bass rig and was floored by how good this bass sounds.
Crystal highs and booming lows. There was no loss of the bass or distortion when I cranked it up.
It was easy to change tones by adjusting the volume controls and rolling off the tone a bit.
It also sounds amazing for jazz and rock! It's got a very deep sound.
If you are like Jazz bass style ,I think this bass is fantastic and worth the money .
Price : $274.99
"Nice style Vintage Bass and Nice for the Price!"
Regarding hardware It's hardware and pickups are very good quality, and the 3-piece body is seamless.

OK from above detail,The new neck is horribly bowed and has terrible buzzing above the 12th fret,
so I have to raise the action unnecessarily high. Adjusting the truss rod is a scary ordeal.
I'm afraid to adjust it too tight - the neck feels so flimsy and The neck is more comfortable than anything I have ever played.
Finally,Do yourself a favor and check this bass out. Even though it's a Squier Jazz Bass, it has become your number one bass and would be devastated if something happened to it.

Welcome back to Bass Central website,Today I would like to show you about the high quality Jazz Bass by Fender.
Fender® scored a giant bass hit in 1960 by introducing its deluxe four-string instrument - the Jazz Bass® guitar. With its sleek offset body; thin, fast neck and rich, growling tone, it was a raring, roaring racecar of a bass that quickly established itself as a must-have instrument. The new American Standard Jazz Bass is an even finer instrument; a modern interpretation of a classic built for modern players. Features include a high-mass vintage bridge, thinner finish undercoat that lets the body breathe and improves resonance, improved Fender tuners that are 30 percent lighter while keeping the classic look, richer and deeper neck tint for a more elegant appearance, great-looking gloss rosewood fingerboard, satin neck back for smooth playability and Fender-exclusive SKB® molded case.
Product Features
- American Standard Jazz Bass® neck and bridge pickups offer a great range of classic and contemporary Jazz Bass® tones.
- A thinner finish undercoat and a new HMV (high-mass) bridge help make this an exceptionally lively and resonant instrument.
- Posiflex(TM) graphite neck support rods make this an exceptionally stable instrument worthy of world tours.
- Fender®-exclusive SKB® molded case, cable, strap, and polishing cloth included.
