Liam Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Fender/Squire announced today the release of 2 new updated version of Mike Dirnt's signature bass. The first one is road-worn model being released on Fender. They value at $1500 and have different picks up, new neck choices and the have cracks and such in them to give them the better sound. You can buy the guitar here. The second is an updated version of his Squire. We aren't sure yet what's so different compared to the original except for the fact they have different pickguards, hopefully we'll get more details soon. You can buy the guitar here.
belinda jane Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 "Dude, seriously, every day is a Green Day when you suit up with the Mike Dirnt Precision Bass" - hahaha they made me laugh. but it looks so nice!! wish i played bass enough to get one.
Liam Posted August 21, 2013 Author Posted August 21, 2013 I don't know if anyone remembers but back in "Rig Rundown" video, Mike's bass tech actually said that one was coming out soon. That was at the start of the tour so obviously this thing has been in the making for a while.
Spike Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 That's a pretty old video, for his original Squier Precision (I've got one ) There is a roadworn Fender coming out but I'm not sure about a Squier version, Squier don't usually do roadworn. Anyway, here's a video for the roadworn Fender...

Spike Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 The white one with black pickguard and rosewood fretboard looks awesome. Not really keen on the maple fretboard, but I imagine that'll appeal to some people. I've still got the original Fender on my shopping list, I've never really seen the point in roadworn. It does look pretty cool, but buy a new looking one and give it some hammer yourself
JIGD13 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Now that I wanted to learn how to play bass this comes out, If I only had the money Edit: $1500 I will never pay that for a bass
! Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 $500 is a good price I guess, but man, how come short scale's don't get any love?
Ritz Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 $500 is a good price I guess, but man, how come short scale's don't get any love? Its 1500$. Open the second link. There is something wrong with the first one.
JIGD13 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Its 1500$. Open the second link. There is something wrong with the first one. You can't buy online right?
Ritz Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 You can't buy online right? There are online stores that sell Fender, I guess.
Annie, get your gun Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 ¡Awesome! New Mikey video :happy: oh, and the bass is awesome too!
JIGD13 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 There are online stores that sell Fender, I guess. But not for $500 that they are showing
Certified Nimrod Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Cool video. What song/songs was he playing?
JIGD13 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Cool video. What song/songs was he playing? The first one or the last one?
Ritz Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 But not for $500 that they are showing $500 model is the old one. The new one costs $1500.
! Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Its 1500$. Open the second link. There is something wrong with the first one. Oh well damn. I'm not that big of a Mike Dirnt fan. Sheeshhhhhhh.
JIGD13 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 $500 model is the old one. The new one costs $1500. I mean the first link bass, that one is for $500 sadly is a mistake
Liam Posted August 21, 2013 Author Posted August 21, 2013 $500 model is the old one. The new one costs $1500. I was just looking at them and the $500 model seems new actually. The pick guard on the white squire is red and not black. Looks like we have 2 new signature models coming out.
Ritz Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 I mean the first link bass, that one is for $500 sadly is a mistake I am sorry I got it wrong. That is the new Squier model which is cheaper than actual Fender models. I was just looking at them and the $500 model seems new actually. The pick guard on the white squire is red and not black. Looks like we have 2 new signature models coming out. Yes, I got it wrong. The first one is Squier model. And the second one is Fender!
Liam Posted August 21, 2013 Author Posted August 21, 2013 I've gone ahead and updated the OP with proper information.
