I like the squier version too.

I love JM pickups but it looks wrong on the Pawnshop version. I actually think its a HB pickup under the JM cover.

Was tempted to turn off at the opening blues noodling, when the second bit of playing was slap there wasn't any point in carrying on.

Squier for Vintage correctness, Fender for Jazzmaster pickup

The only exceptions to the slap bass rule are the song being awesome* or the bassist being Larry Graham†. Rob Chodders and his white man dreads do not fit either category. The odd patch of blues soloing can be fantastic (see: Tony Iommi) but blues noodling in guitar demo videos is never a good thing.

Is it the fact that it's mentioned in the specs and is fairly well-known that makes you actually think this?
