waynepunkdude Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I'm looking forward to getting mine. I'm getting a Jazz and a Jag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allighatt0r Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I'm very much hoping they can actually live up to their expectations, i.e. be as good as the other VMs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mog Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Here we go peeps. Due in the 18 of Aug. I reckon this is gonna be the fastest selling bass this year. [url="http://www.thomann.de/ie/fender_squier_vintmod_jaguar_bass.htm"]I want that one.[/url] Thats the details from Thomann Ireland. I'm sure G4M and GaK etc will be cheaper. Duncan design pups look nice and beefy. Soooooo picking this up. [attachment=54342:Jag.jpg] I'll probably change the scratchplate to mirror or diamond plate. So excited!! :wub: :brow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basshead56 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Says 15 .08.10 now, Hope it gets there even sooner. If so, I will be leaving for New Zealand with one of these I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AND - Check the other link [url="http://www.worldmusicsupply.com/Squier-Vintage-Modified-77-Jazz-Bass.html"]http://www.worldmusicsupply.com/Squier-Vin...-Jazz-Bass.html[/url][/quote] This looks utterly perfect. Build diary binned. Savings... saved. One bass to bash about. Is this going to be Fender's OLP i.e. too good for the price and stops people buying the higher end - if this is £300 (£450 including the modifications you'd want to make) surely it'll trash the MIM market (if that exists)? If VMJs are such good value, so well crafted etc then why is a MIM at twice the price not twice the guitar? - leaving aside country of origin and brand name. In reality Fender need to look at the £500-£750 range and make them really worth it (like CIJs - why aren't they easier to get??????).

Partly preference i guess and its a very nicely made bass but i couldn't get the action anywhere near to how comfortable it is on my CVJ.

Mog Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Depending on where you shop there only about £170 in the difference between VM, CV and MIM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannybuoy Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I'd check before ordering. I've been screwed by several big name internet retailers who list stuff on their site then don't even bother to email me to tell me it's not in stock until I chase them up a week after paying.

For some reason, Sounds Live have two websites running simultaneously. The other one's [url="http://www.soundsliveshop.com/"]here[/url], and it's got better stock-status labelling. Look at something like the [url="http://www.soundsliveshop.com/p/Squier_Vintage_Modified_Jazz_Bass/FEN-0326702521"]VM Jazz[/url] -- see under the price... it says there's one in stock. Look at the [url="http://www.soundsliveshop.com/p/Squier_Vintage_Modified_Jaguar_Bass_Guitar/FEN-032-7900-506"]VM Jaguar[/url]. No mention of it being in stock, so it's not. Certainly not my favourite way of displaying stock status, but it's better than some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They give an estimate of the lead time, and they've always been right so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
