Advantages: Very versatile, excellent quality Disadvantages: More expensive than the standard precision
guitar store will fix this if you can't do it yourself.
Again like most fenders there is hardlty any difference between american and mexican guitars. I tried both and seemed a waste to spend double the amount when there was not much difference. It is a lot better than the squire bass though.
I used to own a fender standard precision bass but the jazz completely beats that, being a lot more versatile and easier to play i prefer it, but still make sure you try both out!
Mine is midnight wine with white pickguard, rosewood neck, and it is lovely, so give it a go and see what you think! ...

However, once you have mastered these key skills, the instructional guide moves along at a good pace, and covers lots of things, such as minor pentatonic scales, major pentatonic scales, dominant chords, power chords, and how to play in ...
