Classic Vibe Active 70s Jazz Bass

The Classic Vibe Active 70s Jazz Bass draws its inspiration from the basses that defined the funky tones of the 1970s, adding an onboard preamp for the ultimate combination of vintage looks and modern performance. Powering this Squier groove machine is a pair of Fender Designed alnico Noiseless J Bass pickups for punchy hum free signal. The 9 volt preamp provides controls for volume, pickup blend, treble and bass boost, and a toggle to switch between active and passive for complete tone shaping control. Other details include a HiMass bridge for optimal resonance, a bound fingerboard with block inlays, nickel plated hardware, and a vintage tinted gloss neck finish for an old school vibe.
