Squier Affinity Series Jazz Bass - 3-Color Sunburst

Squier Affinity Series Jazz Bass - 3-Color Sunburst

The Jazz Bass is arguably the most recognizable and versatile electric bass design in history—it’s the sound that launched thousands of iconic grooves, laid down by legends like Jaco Pastorius, Geddy Lee, and Flea. The Squier Affinity Series Jazz Bass is your superb gateway into this time-honored Fender family, offering legendary design and quintessential tone without breaking the bank. This J Bass starts with a thin, lightweight Poplar body, which is highly resonant and keeps the instrument comfortable through long practice sessions and late-night gigs.

Plugged in, this bass delivers the articulate punch you need to cut through any mix, thanks to its twin Squier Ceramic Single-Coil Jazz Bass pickups. These pickups dish out that famous J-Bass growl and rich harmonic content, giving you everything from crisp, melodic solo lines to thick, funky slap tones. The fast, slim "C"-shaped Maple neck provides a comfortable, easy-to-play feel that’s perfect for the aspiring bassist just starting out or the experienced player looking for a great value backup. This is a workhorse instrument ready to lay the thunderous foundation for any musical style.
