Matt Freeman of Rancid, Operation Ivy and his own Devil's Brigade, has unveiled his own signature Squier bass. The guitar is modelled after his mid-'70s Precision bass, and features traditional split-single-coil pickup, contoured basswood body in Black or Vintage White, vintage-tint gloss fast-action maple neck, 20-fret maple fingerboard with modern 9.5" radius, HiMass bridge with four brass barrel saddles and a three-ply black-white-black pickguard. Freeman adds:

My favorite P Bass is a '77 P Bass that I picked up in 1987 for, like, $400 when I was in Operation Ivy," Freeman said. "I went all over the world with that bass. And I still have it and I actually play it on all the Rancid records. It's not as beat-up as mine. You're gonna have to do that yourself. But it's pretty close, and I love it.

Freeman talks about the bass and his own in a new YouTube interview.
