Squier by FENDER - Classic Vibe 60s Jazz Bass Fretless 3 Color Sunburst
The Squier by Fender Classic Vibe '60s Jazz Bass Fretless electric bass reinvents the legendary smoothness of the sixties with a disconcerting fluidity. Its duo of Fender Designed Alnico Single-Coil pickups carve a deep, woody grain that's perfect for expressive bass lines. Glide limitlessly over its Indian Laurel fingerboard and let the magic of the 3-Color Sunburst aesthetic work its magic on stage.
Presentation
The secret of its singing quality lies in its fretless Indian Laurel fingerboard, offering liquid sustain and infinite nuances with every slide. To reassure even the most hesitant players, fret markers and White Pearloid Dot inlays mark the way for flawless precision. The 38.1 mm bone nut ensures optimum transmission of energy from the nickel-plated steel strings (.045 - .105) to the wood.
On the electronics side, you get an organic acoustic palette thanks to the SS configuration of the Fender Designed Alnico Single-Coil pickups. The two volume controls and tone knob let you adjust the growl of the bridge pickup or the roundness of the neck pickup to suit the acoustics of the venue. The whole set rests on a vintage-style bridge with threaded steel bridges and vintage-style nickel-plated tuning machines, guaranteeing exemplary tuning stability.
The look is no slouch either, with a 4-ply tortoiseshell cover plate and black plastic control knobs that reinforce its retro identity. Whether you're a jazz fusion enthusiast or a studio textural explorer, this passive electric bass behaves like an extension of your own voice. Its 241 mm fingerboard radius makes complex phrasing easy, while retaining good ergonomics for long playing sessions.
