Squier® Ceramic Noiseless™ Jazz Bass®
A gig-ready entryway into the world of active bass electronics, the Squier Affinity Series Active Jazz Bass crosses classic Jazz Bass style with superior sonic control. At the heart of this bass’s lightweight poplar body lies two of Squier Ceramic Noiseless Jazz Bass pickups, granting you a pristine, powerful, and hum-free variation on the J Bass’s legendary grit and growl. The pickups are then paired with an active 2-band preamp with versatile bass and treble boost/cut controls, along with traditional pickup-specific volume knobs to mix between bridge bite and the warmer tone of the neck pickup. What about playability? The Squier Affinity Series Active Jazz Bass boasts time-tested Jazz-style performance thanks to its slim “C” maple neck and slick 9.5-inch-radius Indian laurel fingerboard. You also get stylish vintage-style open-gear tuning machines and a rock-solid 4-saddle bridge. Harness the sound-sculpting power of active electronics in style with Squier’s Affinity Series Active Jazz Bass!
Noiseless pickups paired with a 2-band preamp
The Squier Affinity Series Active Jazz Bass’s electronics section is fueled by a one-two punch of Squier’s Ceramic Noiseless Jazz Bass pickups. Clear, full, and without a hint of hiss or hum, these pickups supply all the J-style growl and grit you could ever ask for. Moreover, the Affinity Series Active Jazz Bass sports a 2-band preamp powered by a 9-volt battery to give you access to powerful bass and treble boost/cut controls. From funky fingerstyle finesse to percussive slap solos, the Squier Affinity Series Active Jazz Bass is one seriously versatile bass.
Shaped for comfort and performance
Among the things that made the J Bass an instant hit with working bass players was its unique offset-waist body shape. Perfect whether playing standing or seated, the classic Jazz Bass contoured body will make those marathon gigs and sessions much more comfortable. With its slim "C"-profile neck, this instrument was originally designed to appeal to jazz bassists. The slender neck not only facilitates the fluid execution of fast, complex bass lines; it's perfect for any musical style — which is why you can find bassists of all styles and backgrounds who swear by the versatile sound of the Jazz Bass.
