I was asked to play bass in a group recently. I don’t play bass. But the short scale and low, low price made me feel like I was playing a lightweight 4 string guitar that I didn’t regret splashing the cash for. Now I’m probably going to actually purchase a bass that costs 3x this one but I’m not getting rid of this lil guy.

Great Vid Tyler! I miss my Bronco sometimes. I had replaced the stock pickup with a Fender American Strat bridge unit. Sounded better, but not tons. I always remember the neck as being one of the most stable on any bass I've owned. Never needed adjustment through temp. changes, bumps and bangs. I only sold it because the string spacing combined with the chunkiness didn't quite work for me. Maybe heavier strings might have improved that feel.

Hey Tyler: good video. I used to own a Squire PJ Precision Affinity bass and sold it in January (not because I didn't like it but I needed some quick money unfortunately). It came as that starter pack (chord, 15 watt Fender amp, bass, and strap) and for the money the Affinity is a decent lower price instrument. I also noticed lower quality bridge, turners, pick ups, etc., but when you are on a tight budget it's hard to knock them. Now compared to my Elite and Ultra series USA made and even Mexicam made basses no doubt you can see the gap in quality. But when you need something I wouldn't hesitate to get another one. This Bronco series I am not particularly fond of, but it seems ok. To be honest, the new paranormal Squire Jazz telecaster bass has piqued my interest, I think it look really cool in that white blonde color. Anyhow, talk to you soon. Cheers! Patrick

Jupiter James-Reynolds I think that’s very similar to my experience with the single coil Squier P basses I’ve played.

The Bronco is neither a P nor a J. It's probably most like the original '51 type P bass but not so much like the current/modern with the split pickup. The short scale alone makes it its own thing. If you want a short scale at this price point, the Epi EB-0 is the only real competition but at $100-ish more, you can nab a used short scale Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar which is definitely a big step up all around. It is a PJ config which is about 75% P, 25% J and definitely more versatile.

Super easy swap...2 solder joints on the top volume pot. That's it. But I took the pickgaurd off and traced it on some stock paper, and gonna look around for someone who can make me something cool to replace the stock black p-gaurd...bass is black too, so kinda plain Jane lame...its already a cool offset SS, so I think it requires a special pickgaurd 🤘, especially with that new SD QP pickup installed. Oh yeah, I also found some new HipShot open gear lite tuners...also black, ha. But, Squire drills the tuning peg holes slightly larger, and then pounds a barbed tooth bushing in, with a hammer 🔨 lol...or it seems so anyhows 🤔. So the HipShot's are just a little too loose for me. Though, it's (hole) probably only 1/32" larger, it's sloppy enough that I left the stock tuners alone. I'm sure the HipShots would've been fine once screwed in, but I'm OCD and I'd always know...haha, but also, once under tension, the new tuners may have been slightly unstable and in that case, the stock ones look and feel good...a good amount of teeth in the gear compared to any other similar stock tuner I have around (I'm a guitar tech). 🎸 Then, I put a Babicz bridge I found laying around on...blacked out too. 😆⛹♀️ So, at this point you realize that I must've bought this bass, and the replacement upgrade parts a while ago and just forgot 😳 , I mean, I still don't remember buying any of it, but oh well...its cool I did and I have a little project to work on and over-analyze for weeks, until I eventually accept that I had it dialed in after first week. This is the first week 🥴🤠🤯... * in my serious voice: It also has a Rosewood fretboard! Not sure what year this is...s/n starts 122557.. 🤔 sometimes the best used gear finds are sitting in you're own storage are still in the unopened box it shipped in 🤩😆. Seriously, it's a good bass so far. Impressed with it. Nut looks sorta like bone...but I would think it's plastic. Haven't gotten there yet. I'll replace it with ...anything but plastic if that's what it is. Well see what kinda crazy pickgaurd I can find someone to make me, and whatever else I come up with and maybe I'll post it on Instagram...haven't been on insta in a minute 🙃 This bass was a player right out of the box. I decided to have fun with it, knowing that the integrity of this instrument is A+. Great neck. Easy balance and weight, standing with it strapped on. Lol...I seriously found an entire bass in my "bass-ment" 😆. Then found all it's replacement parts, acting on a hunch sparked by the memory of finding a random Babicz bass bridge in black chrome when unpacking my workshop in the new house a couple years ago. Nice string spacing as well 🤹🏽♂️🥳 🥱🥱🤤😴🛌 whew... night, Adderall wore off.

I like the Bronco Bass from Squier/Fender - in my youtube Chanel you could find a modificated Bronco Bass with sound very nice. 😀

could u put a p pickup in it or would that need body/pickguard routing
@TylerSpicer3 жыл бұрын
It would need both the body and pick guard routed. Using a 50s style single-coil p pickup would make that easier, but I think it would still require some routing. T

Cheap and cheerful made in China bass. May be quality issues with sharp frets as stated in the comments. What is going on with that bridge grouping the saddles in pairs? Surely they could fit a proper one. No bargain at £170, you can do much better for that price. You’re paying through the nose for the Squire/Fender decal on the headstock.

I agree that the double bridge saddle is just a pain. A definite upgrade needed in my view! T

Do you recommend it to start?

They’re a decent stepfather instrument, but if you want an instrument that sounds a little more versatile and will last you beyond just beginning, I’d try something like a Squier CV bass! T

Would love to see this bass vs the music master if you still have it
