Interested to know what string gauges are use on a Bass VI

Think this is one occasion where production colours have been scaled in the wrong quantities or they
certainly didn't anticipate that overall demand would be so high worldwide.
3 colour sunburst would seem to be by far the most popular choice just for authenticity if nothing else.
Ah well a few more Indonesian Rain Forests will have to disappear to the circular saw blade!!!

Thanks to my friend Tony Szpala, I will have the sunburst Bass VI here by Tuesday am.

Hi all
My new Suire Bass VI arrived last week, O W with tts plate. Two very,very tiny cosmetic faults,took two min with a file to sort.
It sounds fantastic,both my sons, right handed players, say it plays very good straight
out of the box. At £275 its
' the bargain of the year.
Regards Geoff..'

GAK's weekly email proclaimed stocks of the Squier Bass VI in white.

I've just reserved one over the phone.

"Why?", I hear you cry, "...you already have a (sunburst) Fender".

True... but I intend to store this one carefully - if Squier's past performance is anything to go by (witness the original HQ Jagmaster and the Venus 12-string), one the initial batch is gone, it's gone...
