Squier by Fender Mini Precision Bass Guitar, Short Scale, Black

I needed a bass for live performances. I am an acoustic guitarist who uses a looper. I have had the cheap black Benson base on the right of my picture for a couple of years. Not only was it poorly performing but also it was long and unwieldy. The new Fender mini P Bass is about the size of a standard electric guitar and feels so good to play. The unfinished neck and smaller body make it an absolute pleasure to use and it is much less unwieldy on stage than a regular basis. I have yet to check the set up and intonation but it plays fine at the bottom of the neck for everything I need so I am happy with it. It’s also has terrific punch in the low notes and with the town rode off it sounds fantastic. If you need a base for occasional use and you don’t want to break the bank this thing is brilliant value for money and beautifully made.

This is the second time I have bought this model of mini P bass and they are fantastic value for money. The sound is great, a proper P bass growl or smooth depending on where you set the tone control. I have bought this one as a back up as I have been so impressed with the black one I have, and this one also didn't dissapoint. It has a very nice shade of red and £10 cheaper than the black so I have both. As the neck is a lot shorter and the body a lot smaller than the full size it is so much easier to handle and play, plus a lot lighter. I am using it in a band line up and it's definitly pulling it's weight. It is great for begginers and seasoned musicians alike. Buy one I assure you will love it!

A brilliant size for our children to learn on and first impression is it sounds great. Listing describes a fender gig bag being included and so does the Rufus search. This isn’t the case and is misleading. Customer service repeatedly failed to understand or help with this, so not an enjoyable experience.

Very impressed for my first electric guitar. It does all it is meant to do and seems to hold its tuning well, unless there are large variations in temperature (as expected). I also bought a headphone amp for it which is ideal but I have yet to try it with a small portable amp/speaker. The shorter scale length with a narrower neck is also ideal for my small hands. For the price it is a good buy as a starter for me.

incredible value for money. Very good quality product.

Nice little bass, looks, feels and sounds great. Like all Fender products it is just pure quality.

First order arrived and the fretboard wasn't attached to the neck with a huge gap between them. Sent it back and the second order had gaps around the pickups where the pick guard has been shoddily cut. Played it for a while, and though the size was nice, and it was very light, I wasn’t feeling it.

Fabulous bass. Bought for home recording. Has the precision sound. Easy to play stays in tune reasonably well. Nice slinky neck. Perfect for guitar players and would make an ideal beginners bass. Would be nice if they included a gig bag. Has full sized pickups so a big sound. Incredibly light. A joy to play

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Squier Mini PBass, really nice and punchy bass guitar. Small in size, almost like a Strat. Easy playing. ⭐️⭐️ The bass arrived with a faulty pickup. No sound. I asked Amazon would they be willing to give a partial refund, but I would have had to return the item abd get a full refund. The price I paid was discounted (Amazon Deal) so I would not have got a new bass for the same price. I usually always take my new purchased instruments to a luthier for a setup, so they changed the faulty stock pickups to other at the same time. Now it plays really nicely and that’s why five stars. Great instrument! 😎🎸

En general, estoy muy contento con este bajo Squier. Es una excelente opción para niños que se inician en la música. Tiene un buen tamaño, buena calidad (Fender/Squier) y un precio razonable. Sin duda, lo recomendaría a otros padres que buscan un bajo para sus hijos. Lo bueno: - Tamaño ideal: El tamaño es perfecto para niños de 7-8 años. No es demasiado grande ni pesado, lo que facilita que lo manejen y se sientan cómodos tocando. - Buena calidad: La calidad de construcción es buena, se siente sólido y bien hecho. Las cuerdas que vienen de fábrica son decentes para empezar, aunque probablemente las cambiaré más adelante. - Estética: El color rojo Dakota es muy bonito y atractivo para los niños, a mi hija le encanta. Lo mejorable: - Funda: No incluye funda, lo que es un inconveniente. Tuve que comprar una aparte para protegerlo, lo cual es un gasto adicional a tener en cuenta, junto con la correa. - Tornillos de sujeción: Los tornillos que sujetan la correa son un poco pequeños y no parecen muy seguros. Los he cambiado por unos más grandes para mayor tranquilidad.

I injured my left hand, making it impossible to play long scale basses anymore, so I started looking around for short scale instruments. Along with bass ukuleles and mini acoustics, I saw the Fender mini and decided to give it a shot. Since I’ve been playing Fenders all my life it seemed like a no brainer. I saw the reviews that said they needed lots of set up and adjustments, so I was prepared for that. Maybe the techs at Fender read the reviews too, because mine was dead on perfect right out of the box. Intonation, neck, string height, pickups, all perfect. And I love the satin neck instead of the sticky gloss finish that Fender sometimes uses. I agree the strings are not the best, and that is literally my only quibble. I’ve owned a lot of basses over the years, but I think I take the most satisfaction from this one, because it lets me play real bass again. And for anyone who cares, it has a really nice “cool factor”. This is a great deal all around.

ショートスケールのベースが欲しくてあれこれ物色した結果、こいつにぶち当たりました。まず、コスパ面でダントツでした。Fenderブランドで27000円以内ってーのが一番の決め手です。 イシバシ楽器さんも頑張ってくれて、想定内の納期に間に合わせて頂きました。もちろん、不具合もありません。 ただ言わせてもらえば、思ったより小っちゃいです。特にボディが。故に軽いという利点もあるのですが、立って弾くにも座って弾くにも、バランスがイマイチ。材質も関係あるのか（これはメーカーに対しての愚痴ですけど…）。 私は基本ギタリストなのでベースの音の良し悪しは解りませんが、充分な出力はあると思います。運指のし易さも抜群です。特筆すべき事柄は、全長が普通のエレキギターと大差ない事。つまり、エレキギター用のハードケースに収まってしまうって事なんです。 レスポール用のハードケースには厚みが余る感じですけど、メロディーメーカーとかレスポールライト用のハードケースならしっくりくるんじゃないかしら（あくまで個人の感想って事は言うまでも無いですよね）？Fender系のハードケースはあいにく持ち合わせて無いので検証しておりません。 そんなこんなで星四つってとこかしら？でもオイラは満足してます。 あと、ボディ色もホワイト（ピックガードは黒ね）があればよかったかな？ シド・ビシャスみたいな…。 追記です。ボディも小さければ、ストラップピンも小さいです。そこまでダウンサイジングが必要なの？って思っちゃいました。チャンチャン

De entrada soy pianista de profesión, toco jazz y diversidad de música. Buscaba un bajo pequeño para mis hijos y para mí que soy fan de los bajos eléctricos. Lo vi en oferta y bueno, por el precio el mejor bajo eléctrico, llegando lo probé y me sorprendió, de todas maneras lo lleve a un ajuste con un laudero amigo mío y quedo aun mejor. Un gran sonido, no pesa nada, es super cómodo. Tengo mi propio bajo, pero... ahora paso horas tocando este bajo, por lo ligero y cómodo que es. Buenos acabados, buena maquinaria, esperemos que dure muchos años por el uso diario que practicamente se le dá. Si quieres un bajo super ligero y facil de transportar, económico, te diré este es una excelente opción. Si eres profesional del bajo electrico, se entiende que te puede gustar o no.
