Fender has been making high quality, budget priced instruments under the Squier brand since the early 1980s. Essentially, Squier is Fender-sharing its product platforms, trademarks, standards and iconic designs. Squier is the launching pad for beginners, pointing intermediate and advancing musicians toward their ultimate goal of owning a Fender. Squier has tapped into something special with their Vintage Modified series — hot rodded versions of classic Fenders, all sporting top-shelf materials and components.

The Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass Special SS puts classic Fender looks into a distinctively sharp-looking, great-sounding, and super-versatile short-scale Squier bass model. It features the sleek offset-waist body and ultra-slim 30"-scale maple neck, making it a highly payable bass, but also gives you the best of both Fender bass worlds, with a combination of a booming split-single-coil Precision Bass middle pickup paired with a growling Jazz Bass single-coil bridge pickup. It might look like a student model, but the Jaguar Bass Special SS is perfect for players of all levels who appreciate the comfort of a short-scale instrument and the versatility of both P and J bass pickups.
