I injured my left hand, making it impossible to play long scale basses anymore, so I started looking around for short scale instruments. Along with bass ukuleles and mini acoustics, I saw the Fender mini and decided to give it a shot. Since I’ve been playing Fenders all my life it seemed like a no brainer. I saw the reviews that said they needed lots of set up and adjustments, so I was prepared for that. Maybe the techs at Fender read the reviews too, because mine was dead on perfect right out of the box. Intonation, neck, string height, pickups, all perfect. And I love the satin neck instead of the sticky gloss finish that Fender sometimes uses. I agree the strings are not the best, and that is literally my only quibble. I’ve owned a lot of basses over the years, but I think I take the most satisfaction from this one, because it lets me play real bass again. And for anyone who cares, it has a really nice “cool factor”. This is a great deal all around.

Die Lieferung habe ich schnell erhalten. Die Ware kam sehr gut verpackt mit ein Kennwort an. Mein Enkel hatte sich diese Gitarre gewünscht. Man glaubt gar nicht, was diese kleine für ein Sound rausbringt. Er ist so happy damit. Kann diese Gitarre nur weiter empfehlen.

Well, I got mine! It was an "open box" one so I got it slightly cheaper. I have to assume that the previous buyer didn't like the fact that every tuner key was loose. Not hard to tighten but they are the "cheap" type. They're good now! I've been using a U-Bass lately, recorded a CD with one, but Fender makes good stuff and the size is perfect. Like I said, be prepared to set the whole guitar up and dress the frets a bit. I haven't played it yet but I love it! I added a photo of my completed bass. Sounds great!

For such an inexpensive bass, this thing sounds pretty darn good. Like any bass you get in the mail, it will need to be set up, so expect to fiddle with with string height and intonation, and maybe the truss rod.Also, go into it knowing what a super short-scale, reduced-body bass entails: this thing is truly tiny! I regularly play short-scale basses, so I'm not only used to them, but love them. This mini P Bass, though, is actually quite cramped, and because the body is too small and light (substantially smaller than a typical solidbody electric guitar), it tends to neck dive. You'll want to play it with a strap to give your fretting hand a rest.Fit and finish are mostly good, with one exception: the frets have some slightly sharp edges. Be careful.Short-scale basses have an undeserved reputation as being best suited for kids or small-statured people. Yes, they can be useful for those groups, but they can be perfect for larger adults, too, who prefer the tone or ergonomics over 34" scale basses.It's a shame Squier didn't decide to make this a 30" with just a slightly reduced body, which would shrink the standard P Bass down just enough to make it lighter and more comfortable without hurting the ergonomics. If you want a more playable short scale bass at a budget price point, you'd be better served with a Gretsch, Ibanez, Guild, etc. that will get you good tones and better ergonomics and playability.

I own squires and fenders. This squire is made in Indonesia and the n3ck and body are top notch. The hardware and electronics are what make it cheap, and it is adequate for beginners. I immediately ripped off both and put in GOTOH hardware, an EMG Pbass active pickup system ( you'll have to route out a battery compartment) and customized the pickguard. Lastly, d'addorio nylon wound stings. This thing is extremely fun to play! Good for beginners, or experienced bass players who want something unique in their arsenal (with some upgrades of course), and even folks with sort arms and fingers that make a full or short scale too hard to play. Also very light and fits in a strat guitar case no problem.All around great buy.

This is called a mini. The body is a little small, the neck compared to a regular bass is 8 inches shorter.I prefer this model as it is very close to my Fender Squier 6 string neck. SO,,,, switching from guitar to bass and back is easier. The feel is very much the same, my muscle memory works with both.It plays great, sounds great.

It’s a given that when you buy a new instrument, whether it’s a Fender or a Squier, you are going to need to do a setup. After replacing the stock (junk) strings with GHS light gauge Precision Flats and doing the fine adjustments on the bridge, you end up with a very playable, good sounding short scale bass. When you add up the total cost (gig bag, strap, bass and strings) you end up with a really nice package for under $250, and that’s my idea of a bargain! I’ve been playing mostly Fender electric basses for 67 years, so I know a little about them.

ショートスケールのベースが欲しくてあれこれ物色した結果、こいつにぶち当たりました。まず、コスパ面でダントツでした。Fenderブランドで27000円以内ってーのが一番の決め手です。イシバシ楽器さんも頑張ってくれて、想定内の納期に間に合わせて頂きました。もちろん、不具合もありません。ただ言わせてもらえば、思ったより小っちゃいです。特にボディが。故に軽いという利点もあるのですが、立って弾くにも座って弾くにも、バランスがイマイチ。材質も関係あるのか（これはメーカーに対しての愚痴ですけど…）。私は基本ギタリストなのでベースの音の良し悪しは解りませんが、充分な出力はあると思います。運指のし易さも抜群です。特筆すべき事柄は、全長が普通のエレキギターと大差ない事。つまり、エレキギター用のハードケースに収まってしまうって事なんです。レスポール用のハードケースには厚みが余る感じですけど、メロディーメーカーとかレスポールライト用のハードケースならしっくりくるんじゃないかしら（あくまで個人の感想って事は言うまでも無いですよね）？Fender系のハードケースはあいにく持ち合わせて無いので検証しておりません。そんなこんなで星四つってとこかしら？でもオイラは満足してます。あと、ボディ色もホワイト（ピックガードは黒ね）があればよかったかな？シド・ビシャスみたいな…。追記です。ボディも小さければ、ストラップピンも小さいです。そこまでダウンサイジングが必要なの？って思っちゃいました。チャンチャン
