I'm going to get the bad out of the way first, there are a couple blemishes on the finish (both body and neck) which is why I scored quality a tad low. Other than that, this bass is awesome. I've literally fallen in love with it. The hi-mass bridge is excellent and the brass saddles on the bridge really add to the tone. Before I bought it I tried probably a dozen other p-basses all either mexican or american fenders. This one just spoke to me, it just had a unique tone that my ears are drawn to. Also one thing to add, if you like the sound of p-basses but don't particularly like the necks, this one has a slimmer neck almost like a jazz bass which is much more comfortable for people without huge hands like myself.

Very nice fretwork for an inexpensive bass, great fit and finish and good tone. Why good and not great? While this is an excellent bass for recording it's midrange is a little too scooped to cut through in live band settings, and the tone is not incredibly clear or focused, which makes it sound like... dare I say it... a vintage P-bass. Having said that I strung mine up with flatwound strings, and play just about anything on it. I can't say I'm crazy about the Basswood body as it is a very soft wood and screws strip out very easily, so keep a supply of toothpicks and wood glue on hand. If this bass were to get stolen I would definitely buy another. If you have little cash and can only afford one bass then this would be one to consider.

This bass is a little miracle. I own the Sonic blue version and never thought a Squier could be built with such quality and precision. The sound is rich and the craftsmanship has nothing to do with other Squiers (which are fine for the price). The result is that this bass rivals much more expensive basses in feel and sound. Thank you Fender!

This bass has been amazing for me. I've played it live already a bunch of times. I'm not saying it matches up to my high-end basses (which aren't fender), but it's all the P-bass I need that's for sure. And how can you go wrong with the Pino Paladino look!!!

a very striking looking and sounding bass, the CV Precision offers great value for home recordists or gigging bassists. Resembles a vintage '64 P-bass, and the neck feels great. Sounds amazing through a good amp, with the cut and woody tone a good Precision bass should have. A definite model to look for and try.

Fender's mistake will be your bonus!! Fender must have made a mistake by allowing the Squier name to be placed on this bass. To be honest it is of equal or better quality than Fender's Mexican made basses. The neck, bridge, finish, sound and feel of this instrument is unbelievable given the price. In fact, I'd be willing to bet that if you blindfolded an experienced player, they would choose the Classic Vibe over the MIM Fender. My advice is buy one before Fender figures out their mistake and puts the price up or takes them off the market!!

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
