Squier 40th Anniv. Jazz Bass, Vintage Edition, Maple Fretboard, Black Anodized Pickguard, Satin Wide 2-Color Sunburst
Squier 40th Anniv. Jazz Bass, Vintage Edition, Maple Fretboard, Black Anodized Pickguard, Satin Wide 2-Color Sunburst
This is a great bass, it has a straight neck, low action and a versatile pickup system. The finish is in good shape, but shows some normal signs of handling. As a refurished instrument, it is stamped "USED" on the back of the headstock to indicate that it no longer carries a factory warranty.
The first instruments to bear the Squier name were introduced in 1982, answering the call for genuine Fender® designs at accessible prices. The Squier 40th Anniversary collection celebrates the 40-year journey of Fender’s entry-level brand with special editions of the Telecaster®, Stratocaster®, Jazzmaster®, Precision Bass®, and Jazz Bass®, all available in Gold Edition and Vintage Edition variants.
The Squier® 40th Anniversary Jazz Bass®, Vintage Edition is a soulful tribute model trimmed with a collection of classic features for the retro-minded Squier enthusiast. Featuring aged chrome hardware, an anodized aluminum pickguard, a vintage-tinted maple neck, an engraved anniversary neck plate and satin finish throughout, this J Bass® honors the heritage of the Squier catalog and its ancestry. Player-friendly refinements of this commemorative model include a slim and comfortable “C”-shaped neck profile for an easy playing feel, vintage-style tuning machines and 4-saddle bridge with barrel saddles for authentic performance and style, and Fender-Designed single-coil pickups with alnico 5 magnets for familiar J Bass tone.
