Electric Bass

Designed for modern bassists always looking for new musical perspectives, Squier offers with this Jazz Bass VI an instrument that calls for experimentation. Whether you are more of a Jazz or even Prog Metal player, it will satisfy all styles with the addition of low B (SI) and high C (DO) strings. The asymmetrical cut of its poplar body gives it a resolutely modern feel and playing comfort has been optimized thanks to its maple neck with a "Slim C" profile.

Gateway to the Fender family, the Squier Affinity are high-quality instruments at a reasonable price.

This Affinity Jazz Bass VI does not fail the manufacturer's reputation and also offers an instrument that goes off the beaten track.

Designed as a Bass V (i.e. a 4-string bass with an additional low B), this version VI also incorporates a high C string, thus expanding the range of musical possibilities and possibilities for musical experimentation.

The asymmetrical cut, adding a more "modern" touch to the JB format, of the poplar body facilitates access to high notes. The naturally wider maple neck (extra strings required) benefits from a 12" radius that is flatter than average and a very comfortable "Slim C" profile.

The typical sonic versatility of the Jazz Bass is there thanks to its Ceramic single-coil pickups delivering a precise, punchy and characterful sound, equally at home on Slap Funk as on hyper-energetic Prog plans. To control the sound, you will have access to a volume control per microphone to find your balance and a Master Tone will complete the whole thing.
