Squier - Classic Vibe™ Active '70s Jazz Bass
(Mocha)
timeless J Bass Style
with active electronics
Squier's Classic Vibe™ Active ’70s Jazz Bass® is a real groove machine that brings together funk-fueled vintage flavour and modern tonal flexibility in one killer package. Inspired by the basses that defined the ‘70s, this model doesn’t just look the part—it delivers the goods under the hood.
Loaded with a pair of Fender Designed™ alnico Noiseless™ J Bass® pickups, it dishes out punchy tones with zero hum, whether you’re laying down slick disco lines or cutting through a mix with slap and pop. An onboard 9V active preamp gives you full control with volume, pickup blend, treble and bass boost, and a handy toggle lets you flip between active and passive to suit any setup or playing style.
The hardware and feel are just as slick: a HiMass™ bridge brings improved resonance and sustain, while the bound fingerboard with block inlays, nickel-plated hardware, and vintage-tinted gloss neck deliver undeniable ‘70s style.
Whether you’re gigging, recording, or vibing out at home, this Jazz Bass serves up tone, looks, and versatility in spades.
