Maybe treat myself to a dark sunburst one day First bass I ever got was a Granston copy of a Fender Jazz in Sunburst withe the tortoise shell scratch plate. I got the Squier 60's Vibe a year or two ago to remind me of that first one. Great guitar too. I've been playin' it for the last couple of weeks. Been learinin' Sound and Vision today on it. I'd give you a deal on the natural wood one. https://www.andertons.co.uk/brands/squier/squier-jazz-basses/squier-classic-vibe-60s-jazz-bass-in-3-tone-sunburst-w-ashdown-studio-jr-and-acc Link to comment

My first was an ibanez copy of the black and white rickenbacker Bruce Foxton had with The Jam. Bought it off some heavy metal boy when i was 13. Sold everything but my epi 335 and sonoran acoustic when the family came along. Only thing i ever play now is the cheapo 1/2 size acoustic i got for the loon. Maybe treat myself to a decent bass in a few years. 2 Link to comment

I'd look at the Squire range. They are made by Fender but are their so called entry level but they are not far short of Fenders more expensive models. Have a look at their Affinity range. You won't get better value. https://www.gak.co.uk/Results?q=squier affinity bass I have this one 1 Link to comment

So what make is it? The cutaway didn’t look quite right for a real one but difficult to tell from pictures. Link to comment

The cut away point is a little sharper than the Gibson and the wavey bit at the top of the headstock is a little different. There's a couple of other slight things so they can't be sued for a direct copy. Vintage. 1 Link to comment

Redforever86 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Only ever had a Fender Squire Strat, was decent cheap guitar think I got lucky with the build quality and had it tuned up by some boy and it played nice with decent strings. Saved up my paper money and carried a Marshall MG30gfx amp hame on the bus. Beautiful thing. Link to comment
