Squier Start Playing Jaguar Bass Special Short Scale & Fender

For those who want to start playing bass - there's no more comprehensive starter pack than the Fender Affinity Bass Start Playing Packs. The "Jaguar Bass" is one of the iconic bass design of the punk rock music era. This Affinity pack provides you with everything you need to get going and start locking in to the low end groove! 

For budding bassists, the Fender Jaguar offers a classic Fender shape but one that isn't as common as the P-Bass or J-Bass designs. This short scale bass is great for smaller arms and for bassists who are not yet used to stretching their hands to reach between frets.

Here's what Squier say about the Short Scale Jaguar Bass

The all-new Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass Special SS (short scale) puts classic Fender looks into a distinctively sharp-looking, great-sounding and super-versatile Squier bass model. Features include a sleek offset-waist body and an ultra-slim fast-action 30" scale neck, with the added one-two punch of a booming split single-coil Precision Bass middle pickup paired with a growling Jazz Bass single-coil bridge pickup. More than just a student model, this bass is perfect for players who will appreciate the comfort of a short-scale instrument. Superior tone, smooth playability, great comfort and fantastic value.

Included in this pack....

• Squier Jaguar Bass Guitar
• Fender Rumble 15 Bass Guitar Amp
• Fender Gig Bag
• Fender Tuner
• Fender Guitar Lead
• Tuition DVD

Why should I buy a branded instrument from Andertons?

• 1) Trusted Brands
  All the big brands of guitars make beginners guitars so you can rest assured that you're getting the backing of a brand that already know a thing or two about building instruments! 
  
  Big names like Fender Squier can afford to offer quality guitars at very low prices because they know that people trust their quality. They've been building electric guitars for over 60 years, after all!
  
• 2) Quality Instruments
  Here at Andertons, we pride ourselves in ensuring we sell good quality instruments at the right price for players of all abilities. Imagine playing a guitar that always sounded out of tune however much you tuned it, and where the strings hurt your fingers after you've been practicing. Unfortunately this is sometimes the kind of quality you find in "high street" guitars. This only encourages people to give up!
  
  We believe that by selling you a quality instrument, you will be more likely to progress quickly and avoid frustration when learning the guitar. We have guitars at price points to suit literally any budget so it's simply not true that you'd be saving money buying from a high street retailer.
  
• 3) Value for money 
  The Squier starter packs from Andertons come with pretty much everything you need to start playing, right out of the box, including a tuition DVD from Fender, PLUS an extra one hour of free online content recorded exclusively for Andertons customers! 
  
• 4) Better resale value 
  If you do decide that the guitar is not for you - or better yet you find yourself wanting to move on to your second guitar - you will find it much easier to sell a branded starter guitar than an unbranded one.
  
• 5) Great offers & service
  Finally - we know that people want us to go the extra mile when they are buying a musical instrument! We offer free next day delivery within the UK (subject to stock & ordering before 12 noon), loyalty points worth money off your next purchase, an excellent returns policy and sound buyer's advice; not only about how to choose an instrument but also how to take care of it afterwards.
  
  In short - when you buy a guitar from Andertons, whether it is your first instrument or the guitar you've been saving for all your life - we promise to offer the same 5 star service every time.
