The Squier Jaguar Bass Special SS, Candy Apple Red main features include:
As far as short scale basses go, there aren't really that many options, so going with Squier is always a good bet. This one is quite comfortable, with a thin neck and light body. The craftsmanship is great and the only bad thing about it is the jazz pickup, which is extremely low output. The Precision pickup is great, though, and you can always replace the Jazz one anyway. It's a great entry level bass and a later transition to a real Fender later, like the Mustang that is also short scale.
