Squier's Classic Vibe '70s Jazz Bass brings iconic '70s era design to the modern age. This sleek bass combines a lightweight poplar body with a maple neck and fingerboard for articulate tone and smooth playability. Two Fender-designed alnico single-coil pickups provide the warm, crisp sound that defined a generation. With a slim "C"-shaped neck profile, 9.5"-radius fingerboard, and narrow-tall frets, this bass feels familiar and fast. Vintage-style tuners, a 4-saddle bridge, 3-ply pickguard, and nickel-plated hardware complete the retro vibe. The Classic Vibe '70s Jazz Bass—a reimagined classic with vintage style and modern playability.

Fender-Designed Alnico Single-Coil Pickups

The two Fender-designed alnico single-coil pickups provide dynamic, articulate tone with balanced output. Roll back the neck pickup for a warm, round sound or blend in the bridge pickup for increased attack and high-end cut. With both pickups engauged, you'll get the full-spectrum sound that shaped '70s popular music.

Maple Neck and Fingerboard

The maple neck and fingerboard offer a smooth playing feel and bright, crisp tone. The "C"-shaped neck profile feels comfortably familiar for most players. A 9.5" fingerboard radius and narrow-tall frets make navigating the 34" scale length effortless. Black block position inlays provide an understated yet stylish touch.

Vintage-Style Hardware

Vintage-style tuners, a 4-saddle bridge, 3-ply pickguard, and nickel-plated hardware complete the retro esthetic. The tuners smoothly and accurately hold tune through dynamic playing. The bridge saddles securely anchor each string for rock-solid intonation.

Lightweight Poplar Body

The lightweight poplar body reduces playing fatigue and provides articulate, balanced tone. Its gloss polyurethane finish accentuates the wood grain for an organic look. A deep cutaway gives easy access to higher frets.
