A truly classic Fender® bass guitar model from the mid-1960s returns in the sleek, short-scale form of the Squier Vintage Modified Mustang Bass. The instrument honors its 1966 ancestor with a basswood body finished in Black or Three-color Sunburst, 19-fret maple neck and 30” scale perfect for players of all kinds who appreciate the comfort of a short-scale instrument.
Other features include a Duncan Designed™ split single-coil pickup, three-ply pickguard, chrome tuners and distinctive Mustang Bass four-saddle bridge. Superior tone, smooth playability, great comfort and fantastic value.
Always think about getting a Bronco bass when I see them on CL for $50-$75... Looks like they paid way more attn to details on the Mustangs! Now we just have to mentally compute how many people will buy one for their kids who will never use it and how long 'til they start showing up used...

I've read that people are finding the J pickup to weak to be workable on those. Other issues?
I thought the neck was over cheap. There is a point one should not cross when it comes to necks, the neck is a big part of the sound, sustain, harmonic content of a instrument. If you are going to use crap wood LAMINATE THE FUCKING THING!
My issue is the basswood. I really loved my Squier TB, but the basswood was like cork. Just not a lot of resonance at all. The neck seems fine. It seems pretty hard, and didn't need a lot of adjusting.
I'm betting this bass is basically the same as the Bronco, which I like. Could be awesome with some mods...
My VM jazz bass is fine for me. I could give to shits about resonance I play through a big muff with the sustain maxed. you can't hear the wood anyway.
