Pre-Owned Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass - Crimson Red Transparent

The Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass: A Punchy Performer with Bold Style

Classic Fender-Inspired Looks with Modern Features

The Pre-Owned Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass in Crimson Red Transparent fuses the aggressive styling of the Jaguar platform with the sonic versatility of dual pickups and an active bass boost. This 2016 model stands out with its sleek gloss-finished basswood body and three-ply black pickguard, echoing its Fender heritage while offering a voice all its own. The finish, transparent enough to hint at the grain beneath, gives the bass a striking stage presence.

Comfort and Playability Across the Neck

Crafted with a maple neck shaped to a comfortable "C" profile and topped with a rosewood fingerboard, this Jaguar delivers a familiar feel for players at every level. A 9.5-inch radius and medium jumbo frets make navigating the 34-inch scale length smooth and responsive, even with noticeable wear at key fretboard positions. Despite visible signs of use, the playability remains intact, offering a seasoned feel that many bassists actually prefer.

Dual Pickup Design and Active Circuitry for Tonal Flexibility

Under the hood, the Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass houses both a split single-coil Precision Bass pickup in the middle position and a single-coil Jazz Bass pickup at the bridge. This dual-pickup setup is further enhanced by an active bass boost circuit—perfect for sculpting your low-end response in real-time. With separate volume controls for each pickup and a master tone, it’s easy to dial in anything from mellow thump to gritty growl.

Honest Player Wear Adds Character

This instrument bears honest player wear consistent with regular use. Notable blemishes include fretboard wear at the 1st through 7th frets, scuffs along the back of the neck, body playwear and pick scratches, and finish cracks at the neck heel on both treble and bass sides. Dents and scuffs are visible on the lower bout and bass side. While purely cosmetic, these marks give the bass a broken-in look and vibe that gigging players often find endearing.

Built to Handle the Road

This Jaguar Bass features solid hardware including standard open-gear tuners, a four-saddle vintage-style bridge, and black plastic control knobs, all designed to offer stable performance in both studio and live settings. While no case or accessories are included, the rugged construction and timeless styling mean this bass is ready to plug in and get to work.
