Video Review - Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar and Jaguar Special Short Scale Basses video free download

I actually did a jazz gig on the short scale version, and I really liked how maneuverable the neck was. What I did not like though, is that the intonation was total wack. When I would hit a sustained note, It would slightly out of tune... I like the bass, but would highly recommend a setup.

If that's a rosewood fingerboard on a maple neck, why is there a "skunk stripe" on the back? Usually you only see those on maple necks, where they have to route out the back to put the truss rod in. Rosewood fingerboards usually route out the top of the neck, then put the fingerboard on top.

The short scale actually has a deeper sound in the higher string register than the long scale.

Nice P bass growl from both

I've just got a brand new jaguar bass. After not playing for ten years, I'm finding I can't get comfortable with this bass. It's the body shape , I prefer a deeper body where it sits on the leg. . I've tried moving it forward or back. Makes it worse. . Wish I got a different bass now

Frankly, I don't know why anyone would want more high-end in a bass. A deeper low-end tone is more in keeping with what a bass is for, in the first place.

Look at all of you, short scale bassist right here, just like piano, a good bassist know how to stretch his hand and play fast..... Pffff pussy..... M okay im sorry i play a long scale since im 10 years old so i feel to tight on a short scale..... Peace up my fellow bassist friend

Oh my gosh i am in love with the black one but I cant find it anywhere online. I love that kind of pickguard especially with black, and then the block inlays are so good. Someone please help!!

Jaguar Special Short Scale Bass: this is a great bass for the $$$. It needs some TLC, like a set-up, but great deal.

This is the bass that Tyler Joseph (Twenty One Pilots) uses and I was thinking about getting it in short scale because I'm 15 and I have shorter arms than adults (obviously) so would the shorter neck help out or not?

smack and whack ddd

the best squier bass there is.

Nice review Jordan. I actually own 2 of the SS model. One tuned EADG & the other BEAD If you're going to try you're hand modding a guitar it might as well be cheap, right?? Great review. I can tell the difference in pickup quality with those SD. BTW, can you tell me the difference between SD pu's & SD "designed" pu's? Also, I discovered a cheap "fix" in improving the sound. I bought a$30 Behringer Sansamp clone (you can tell I'm cheap!) and it really beefed up the sound. Has the same growl and sustain as the full-length Jag (at least). Someday I may also upgrade the pu's anyway though.

I have the 34 inch scale model. If you are looking for a small light weight instrument then note that both the 34 inch scale and short scale both are quite heavy. Another thing: Having 2 vol pots and 2 tone pots is not good in the sense that much signal vanishes in the pots. You get better tone if you set all to max and then use the tone-control on the amp (often you have better posibillity to control tone on the amp). Don't forget: What wood-spieces the bass is made of have no real influence on tone. So don't waste your money on expensive wood. And dont forget to play your instruments - they miss you!

dont see spending more on pickups than the bass itself, would just get one that sounds descent for money in first place, just my 2c
