Below is a video of a modded Squier Bronco Bass. The stock pickup was swapped out for a dual-rail humbucker and a thumb rest was added. In the latter half of the video, the owner of the bass explains that he bought the bass that way and didn’t do the mod himself…<\/p>\n
…but does explain a few interesting points about the Bronco Bass.<\/p>\n
First, it is probably the cheapest 30-inch short scale bass you can buy.<\/p>\n
Second, generally speaking it holds tune and plays fairly well for what it is.<\/p>\n
Third – and this is the most important thing – very mod-able. It is ridiculously easy to mod a Bronco Bass. Some have modded the Bronco Bass with a lipstick pickup. Others use a humbucker. Others use a Mustang P-style pickup<\/a>. Some have even gone so far as to mod it into a “Mini Jazz Bass”.<\/p>\n The Bronco Bass is cheap to acquire, easy to mod and fun to play. It’s also great for aspiring bass builders out there that want a dirt cheap bass they can hack up to experiment with.<\/p>\n Check out how good one of these little Bronco Basses can sound below.<\/p>\n Note: We would be happy to feature a modded Bronco Bass as a Bass of the Week<\/a>. Whoever gets featured with their modded Bronco Bass would be the first one, so you would have bragging rights. \ud83d\ude42 Grab one today, mod it and submit it for BOTW here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
