Description

The Squier Mini Precision Bass in Dakota Red is a compact 3/4 size electric bass designed for younger learners, smaller handed players, and anyone who wants the familiar Precision look and feel in a more manageable format. Its 28.6 inch scale keeps the reach comfortable while delivering a full, confident voice that sits well in any band or practice mix. Simple controls make it easy to dial in a sound quickly, and the lightweight body keeps long rehearsals comfortable. Whether you are starting lessons, moving from guitar to bass, or seeking a portable instrument for travel and backstage warm ups, this Mini P makes playing accessible and fun.

Built with a resonant poplar body and a smooth maple neck, the Mini P pairs classic Squier workmanship with thoughtful details that lift it above basic starter instruments. The comfortable C shaped neck and laurel fingerboard with a 9.5 inch radius encourage relaxed left hand technique, while 20 medium jumbo frets give plenty of room for clean notes and tidy bends. A split single coil Precision style pickup provides the familiar punch and warmth associated with countless recordings. Hardware is sturdy and reliable, with stable tuning and solid intonation that helps beginners progress faster and keeps experienced players happy when they need a dependable small bass.

Perfect for UK tuition and school ensembles, the reduced scale lowers string tension, making first position work and extended practice sessions far easier on developing hands. The focused Precision voice sits clearly with keyboards, guitars and drums at lesson volumes, and responds well to both fingerstyle and pick playing. Its compact size fits easily into small practice spaces and standard three quarter gigbags, and it slips into a car boot without fuss. With sensible pricing and a durable finish, the Mini Precision Bass offers strong value for families, schools and travelling musicians who want a comfortable instrument that encourages regular practice and steady progress.
