I received my Squier Bass VI from Chicago Music Exchange early. It was estimated to arrive in November, but was delivered a month early. The exterior shipping box arrived without issue, but the inner box from Fender to CME was in poor condition for a new guitar.

Once opened, I was relieved that the guitar survived its initial shipping journey in North America.

I first played through some Marshall-y patches through my Fractal FM3 to make sure the electronics were still functioning. I immediately started coming up with ideas with the Bass VI.
The fretted note at the 12th fret on the low E string was sharp by 15 cents. Intonation of the other strings was tolerable. I noticed that the Bass VI came with a Mustang bridge, which was probably added when the model transitioned from the Vintage Modified to Classic Vibe line. Hopefully the Mustang bridge will have enough range to set the low E intonation.
More to come.
