Great playing guitar/bass
ChillYourTts 09.12.2024
Picked this guitar as a fan of Loathe, Thornhill, and other bands, who use baritones in tunings like Double Drop D and similar.

Overall, it makes all of the sounds that I would like it to make.
I am a primarily a guitar player, who occasionally plays bass.
With this thing , I can record a "guitar" sound on a bridge pickup, and a "Bass" sound on a combination of 3. Which exactly depends on the context of the song.

In regards to quality - the neck is fabulous, no complaints on finish quality. I know that Antigua finish on Jazzmaster baritone's pickguard peels off quite easily. Unlike that Jazzmaster, the finish on the pickguard is way more durable.

I would rate quality 5 out of 5, but I found a ground wire was broken off on the pickup switch panel. In the schematic I can see that it is mostly redundant, because everything is grounded in multiple points, but still.
Also, the setup was OK-is, strings were too high, and needed some intonation adjustments. Also, trem arm makes a lot of creaking noises, when you push or pull on it, but i don't use it anyway.

Overall very pleased with the purchase.
Great instrument.

eigentlich tolles Instrument aber....
Bassundbasser 01.12.2024
Verarbeitung, Lieferung etc. alles wie immer sehr gut bei Thomann. Aber es gibt ein Problem, welches bekannt ist und trotzdem nicht abgestellt wird. Die werkseitige Besaitung ist eine Katastrophe. Die E Saite ist nicht oktav- bzw. bundrein zu bekommen. Bereits bei F stimmt der Ton nicht mehr und beim G ist man bereits bei einem schiefen G#. Über die Stellschrauben ist das nicht zu lösen. Ich habe mir jetzt die Fendersaiten bestellt die von Käufern der anderen Squier VI Bässen empfohlen werden. Wenn das nicht funktioniert, ist das Instrument aus meiner Sicht unbrauchbar und sollte mit den werksseitigen Saiten keinesfalls ausgeliefert werden. Ich habe nun 6 Monate auf den Bass gewartet und bin nun entsprechend enttäuscht und auch ein wenig sauer auf Thomann.
