i'm not a fan of squier in general. some are ok but their QC is spotty as hell. get what you pay for etc.

I got a classic vibe mustang bass last month and it was a buzzy sob. Sent it back.

First experience with classic vibe which I heard such great things about, it’s my normal recommendation for the OP but it was unplayable.


What kind of buzz? Fret buzz? Electronics?

People still don't know what a set-up is I guess.

Sorry, I meant fret buzz. Intonation issues as well. I also read something after the fact that they use full scale strings from the factory which would need to be changed to short scale.

Input jack gave me some trouble as well

I understand what a setup is, and know this will be a $100+ job not counting my time and expense getting the work done just to see if I like it. It basically came unplayable. It makes it a deceptive price point as I would consider other options given the lack of QC from the factory. Which is why I sent it back.
