Description
First introduced in 1960, the Jazz Bass has stood the test of time to become one of the most played and recorded instruments in the history of modern music. As Roundwound strings and brighter bass sounds became popular in the 1970s, a number of modifications were made to the J Bass to suit the changing tastes of music production. in particular, maple keys and a rear sensor have moved closer to the bridge. The ’70s Squier Classic Vibe Jazz Bass captures this awesome vibe in an incredibly affordable instrument with the classic J Bass offset waist body, fast-action neck and single-coil pickups. Squier’s Classic Vibe ’70 J bass drum is remarkably comfortable to play, allowing you to pull off extremely tight tracks and grooves with ease. Of course, it also delivers the legendary punchy bass sound you can only get with a pair of Jazz Bass pickups.
