Seen a Gretsch short scale (£339 brand new!), a few Fender CS Jaguars with humbuckers, and a white Starcaster bass. Didn't watch the full set tho!

So, the Fender Jaguars with the humbuckers are Custom Shop builds which puts those lovely looking Short Scales out of my budget. Let's hope for a Squier version.

There's a Squier affinity Jag bass with a single humbucker.

I've never played one but as long as the neck is straight I reckon it could be refined/modded into something pretty close to whatever the RB guy is using.

But these Affinity Jag basses are medium scale 32ins and have a huge reputation as upgrade platforms.

I'm more interested in a 30ins short scale with two humbuckers. Watching to see people's views on the Squier Rascal to see if it appeals. But the Custom Shop Jags at Royal Blood's show just really hooked me.

Did I read somewhere $1500? Usual ends up a near as dammit straight conversion to GBP.

I’d rather get my mitts on one of those Gold wide range humbuckers if their copies

of the original Tele ones.
