Squier Classic Vibe '60s Competition Mustang Bass Lake Placid Blue w/Olympic White Stripe
Description
While small in stature, the Classic Vibe ‘60s Mustang Bass packs a punch of incredible tone courtesy of the Fender-Designed alnico split-coil pickup. Small hands will appreciate the short 30” scale length and slim, comfortable “C”-shaped neck profile with an easy-playing 9.5”-radius fingerboard and narrow-tall frets. This throwback Squier model also features 1960s-inspired headstock markings, rich-looking nickel-plated hardware and a slick vintage-tint gloss neck finish for an old-school vibe.SeFirsthand experiences

These are around for a while. What I don't like about them is the not period-correct skunk stripe, my Surf Green 60's CV Mustang Bass from 2020 did not have one.
