Fender's colossal fail
4 von 10 finden das hilfreich I understand that it is a Squier, low end model but cmon guys.
After buying this hot mess I went and looked up reviews and videos from fellow Bass VI owners. every one complained of the same failings, the bridge.
The bridge is so poorly designed, that intonating the instrument, with the existing bridge, is 100 percent impossible.
I have been building guitars for 15 years and I understand the physics and geometry and all of the reasons for the the way the math works out, on a properly built guitar.
This instrument, in the way it comes from the factory, is not capable of being intonated, because the bridge is not stable enough to hold an intonation from start to finish. It is inherently unstable by design. It cannot maintain a position and teeters back and forth on pins.
Quite frankly, it is rediculous. I watched countless videos of fellow owners, some luthiers, trying to show every way imaginable of sidestepping this poor design and claiming that it could be intonated, using their techniques and tricks.
All are just guys that have been messing with it for so long that their ears are shot and they've convinced themselves that it is holding a tune.
However, if you are watching the videos for the first time, you can clearly hear that the thing is poorly intonated at best. Sick sounding at worst.
The bridge problems are only compounded buy the crap pickups, whos poles don't even run under the strings correctly. The low E is so far off that it is incapable of sending a steady signal to the tuner. So there is no way to even make a decent attempt at the most used string.
My only solution was to re engineer the instrument entirely. I threw the old bridge out. Installed a proper hard tail bridge that actually has a flat bottom. screwed it into the wood and permanently installed it. Cut the grooves into the fresh bridge saddles, so that the strings went over the poles and sacrificed any chance of using the tremolo, for anything more than a string stop.
Now I have a good solid instrument, with shitty pickups.
Installing a preamp, that runs on a 9 vol battery and contains a two band EQ, to heat those duds up with, will be the next step.
I covered the useless tail piece with an ashtray and the bridge with the pickup cover from the ashtray set.
For that I could have bought the Fender model but unfortunately, they are designed with the same bridge. Then I would have been 800 dollars worth of pi**ed off, instead of only 300 dollars worth.
I am officially done trusting the Fender name. They should be ashamed of this thing.

Mated perfectly with my HEI Distributer.
