I've been a bass player for a long time. Owned higher end Fenders and Rickenbacker, then took a long hiatus from music due to work and school. I do electronics and light luthier work on my instruments to keep them in tip top shape. It came time for me to buy a new bass and all of the used ones I came across the sellers prices were ridiculous for what they had. I looked into Squier because I've been a Fender bass fan since I started as a teenager. I really wanted to know what the differences were between this Affinity Squier and the entry level Fender Player series.I found out that the bodies are both made of alder, same fretboard radius, string spacing, the only difference is that this model uses an Indian Laurel fingerboard,

The guitar looks and feels awesome out of the box. Bought Used-Like New, with package damage listed as only issue, actually had small chip on back of body. Not an issue, as the price was still very fair for such a small bit of damage ($100 off or so), but I mention for other buyers. That’s on Amazon anyway, not Squier.As far as the guitar, I am taking a star for the action height, but otherwise it’s perfect for my needs (learning to play 5 strings). I know 5 string basses need a little more room, but even at the lowest saddle setting, with them flat against the bridge plate, the action is still at least twice as high as spec. Truss rod appears correct, and I’ve used a capo to remove the nut+tuning posts as a factor in measurement.

My main bass is a Sadowsky jazz bass. If you can afford one and find one in stock, then a Sadiwsky a dream come true. I wanted a second bass to loan out to the other bassists at my church, and I wanted quality and affordability. This Squire jazz bass stands out in quality from all of the other basses at this price point. It even surpasses the quality of basses at twice the price. This cost 10% of what I paid for my Sadowsky and has 75% of the quality of my Sadowsky. Be sure to get it set up properly. Adjust the truss rod properly, set the intonation, and get the action where you want it. The adjustments will make it sound 20% better.

I absolutely love this bass. Once I found out that the only differences between this and its mainline Fender equivalent were the wood used for the fretboard and the pickups (which are changeable anyways, provided you can solder). Such a great value for what you get. I did have to set this bass up once it got here, but thats part of getting a new instrument.
