luckman67 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Can anyone tell me if the body of the Squier Classic Vibe 60's Precision, is the same thickness as the Fender MIM & MIA Precision bass. I own a 1989 Squier precision and the body is thinner than normal Fender basses.Recently I have really wanted a MIM or HW1 precision,but if the Classic Vibe 60's has the same body thickness then I would get one of these.

Moos3h Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Yes, it's roughly the same, full thickness. Lovely basses too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezzaboy Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Don`t know about the body thickness but I`ve got a H1 P and it`s quite a heavy bugger. It sounds great and I like the finish, it`s starting to wear nicley! The Squire is a cool looking bass and around £300 it`s well priced. I really like the finish on the headstock. For half the price of a H1 it`s worth a punt. Jez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I have the Squier CV Jazz and the body is same shape/size as my MIA Jazz! In fact, apart from the pickups/sound and the lack of through body stringing, I'd say it's as good! I do also prefer the size of frets on the MIA.....but my point is that the Squier CV's are ace Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckman67 Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 Thank you for your answers Gentlemen, it looks more like I will get the CV Precision over the MIM & save some money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love my CV James Johnson Jazz and can't decide between the CV Precision or Jazz for another bass. Most people seem to rate the CV's above the MIM Fenders.

bh2 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 (edited) I'm looking to get a CV P as a project bass... here's what I have in mind... Vintage reverse machines, matching headstock, pup cover, flat top knobs, poss light relicing... 7 neck plate, 3rd strap button (back of headstock) Or I might get the CV Jazz and do the same...
