Fender Bass

The Player Jazz Bass is an inspirational instrument with traditional, elevated flair and true Fender bass tone, thanks to its two single-coil pickups and easy playing feel. It has a loud, tight sound with a snarling voice combined with a rapid, smooth playing feel for a dose of creative inspiration. The Player Jazz Bass is ready for action in the studio or on stage, and it can handle anything you can think of—and anything you haven't yet.

First introduced in 1960, the Fender Jazz Bass has stood the test of time as one of the most played and recorded instruments in modern music history. The great Jaco Pastorius famously removed frets from his Jazz Bass to create a new classic: the fretless Jazz Bass. The Squier Classic Vibe '60s Fretless Jazz Bass celebrates this tradition with a deeply affordable instrument with the classic J Bass offset waist, fast-action neck, and humbucking pickups. Squier's Classic Vibe '60s Fretless J Bass is very comfortable to play, letting you pull through extremely tight strums and grooves with ease. Of course, it also delivers the legendary punchy bass sound you can only get from a pair of Jazz Bass pickups.

The Classic Vibe '70s Jazz Bass® V is a tribute to the evolution of the J Bass® in the 1970s, combining its renowned luxury playability with the versatility and deep tone of Fender-designed dual Alnico single-coil pickups. Player-friendly features Include a slim, comfortable "C" neck profile with an easy-to-play 9.5" radius fretboard and narrow high frets, as well as a vintage-style bridge with a slotted barrel saddle to keep strings secure. This vintage Squier models also feature 1970s-inspired headstock markings, rich-looking nickel-plated hardware, and a glossy neck finish in vintage tones for a vintage vibe.
