Fender Squier Classic Vibe '60s Jazz Bass, Laurel Fingerboard, Daphne Blue

Crafted from lightweight poplar, the Classic Vibe 60’s Jazz Bass ensures a comfortable playing experience with effortless playability. Featuring a modern “C” shaped maple neck and fingerboard, this bass not only boasts an appealing aesthetic but also offers seamless control and speed, thanks to its 20 vintage-style frets that breathe new life into every note, ensuring remarkable clarity across the entire fingerboard.

Equipped with Fender-designed single-coil pickups, the Squier Classic Vibe 60s Jazz Bass delivers the iconic sound of the 60s, characterized by its pair of Fender-Designed Single-Coil pickups. These pickups deliver exceptional performance, allowing for easy shaping of sound with the pair of Volume and Master Tone controls, typical of single-coil pickups renowned for their ability to produce an open, expressive sound.

Featuring a magnificent tonewood blend, the Squier Classic Vibe 60s Jazz Bass offers powerful tone across all pitches. Its combination of tonewoods ensures brilliant tonal balance and versatility, with a solid poplar body delivering meaty, full-bodied tones with remarkable depth. Additionally, the maple neck topped with an Indian laurel fingerboard enables dynamic mid-range notes and sparkling highs, providing punchy, high-pitched bass solos with clarity and sharpness, making it a versatile all-rounder.

Enhancing resonance and tonality, the bass features a carefully fitted synthetic bone nut, which improves vibration transfer between the string and tuning machines without compromising tone, unlike traditional plastic or Tusq materials.

As for the Fender Jazz Bass itself, it stands as Fender's second model of electric bass, known for its brighter tone and richer midrange and treble compared to its counterpart, the Precision Bass. Renowned bass players worldwide favour the Jazz Bass for its distinctive sound. Squier by Fender Jazz Bass Guitars, linked with names like Marcus Miller, have become the choice of generations of bass players, embodying a legacy of quality and performance that continues to resonate with musicians.
