Both sound great! But the 21 definitely looks and sounds better! That gunmetal grey looks so good!. Really wanna get a bass and this only adds to that haha. Great video guys! As always!
Recently got a white one with maple neck. Love it, use p and j pick up together. Thinner neck feels very comfortable. Just ordered a lake placid blue with laurel fretboard. Just in case I'm in a white or blue mood😂 . The lighter body makes the whole thing comfortable and balances well with a strap. Fantastic bass for £200, wish these had been around in the 70s when I started playing. Great review, so many reviewers are more interested in showing off their chops rather than actually reviewing the instrument.
Brilliant demo lads👍 I've had my 2021 (black with all maple neck) for 3 weeks & I'm chuffed with it. I run it through an Eden WTDI and it sounds epic. I initially bought it just to haul to and from rehearsals (and the occasional, dodgy gig). Something I dare not do with my Aerodyne, Warwick or custom EB-3. Really solid, well constructed, well balanced and cheap as chips. I will be shielded the cavity when I get the chance (to remedy the slight buzz).
I have same bass, that is a jazz neck. Measure it with inch ruler stick Jazz bass necks are 1 1/2" and 1 5/8" P bass necks are 1 3/4" These basses have 1 5/8" neck nut width making it a Jazz neck. They call it 1.625"
I’ve had a usa fender jazz for the past 25 years or more since new and it’s been the best bass I’ve ever had 😎 also just recently got a Tony Franklin signature fender fretless P/J bass that’s he’s customised years ago with a pickup switch like they have in guitars 😆🤘these bass guitars you guys have been showing sound great on a budget though! Thanks for the review. I’m looking into helping my student get one today with a Fender Rumble 15watt. I know how that it’ll be a great little starter combo rig :) thanks again 😎
I have an issue with mine where when I have both p and j pickups turned up all the way I get a pretty noticible volume cut and lose a lot of low end as well, which is annoying me to no end (wish I noticed this at the pawn shop when buying but I didn't) I keep reading online that this is probably the pickups being out of phase with each other and that I should switch the wiring of one pickup to resolve. Was wondering about your opinion since you have the same bass?
I’ve had that on a couple of PJ basses including the current one. It doesn’t seem to be an out of phase issue but I also haven’t been able to resolve it. Please let me know if you find a fix as I haven’t managed so far
Just ran into this, I know it's two years old... I have same issue with the same bass, you need to tweak both volumes till you get peak output from both. With mine, turn both to max, then turn down the J volume a bit, to get max output.
Bought the Jazz version of that 2021 model and the neck relief was just shocking and took an awful lot of truss rod adjusting to resolve. Still not sure it’s quite right.
Make truss rod measurements and adjustments slowly over a long period of time. It takes time for the truss rod in neck and the string tension to find equilibrium.
Я купил месяц назад точно такой бас за 400 $ в интернет-магазине! Бас очень порадовал глаз внешним своим видом и качеством! НО, увы, и здесь ложка дегтя, - при подключении к усилителю очень расстроился, - гитара сильно фонит! Менял разные шнуры, дело не в них, и не в усилителе, а явно в темброблоке гитары! При игре сплошной шорох и щелчки по струнам, а прикоснёшься к крутилкам или струнам пальцами - сразу тишина.. Вобщем, не знаю, очень жаль такую гитару отправлять назад в магазин из-за фона, но с другой стороны придётся теперь мучиться разбирать пикгард и экранировать самому (и то, если получится)!

I've got two squire strats that have a lot of flame on the neck. Seems odd for it being the base model.
Possible to hear the sound, real sound ?!??
Helpful video. 2021 it is for me
The 2021 sounds like new strings
2020 sounds old strings
Thank you!
Five minutes in I still have no good idea of what they sound like ... at all ...
They enjoy hearing themselves talk. Still unsure what language they're speaking.
They are describing their basses
I mean there are time stamps and you're talking about 5mins into a 15 minute video. Why don't you get over yourself and quit whining
Does anyone know if you can swap necks from the 2021 Squier affinity to like an official mim neck?

I recommend using one pickup at a time for best tone, either use jazz pickup or split P bass pickup, with tone wide open!

Yeah I have a string ray I think the 21 model sounds better 🤔

Return it?

Does Mark need to be a complete T#@t to Steve?, is it part of his personality or is it a “feature” of the channel?
