Squier Classic Vibe ’60s Jazz Bass Fretless in 3‑Color Sunburst, (Used)

The Squier Classic Vibe ’60s Jazz Bass Fretless in 3‑Color Sunburst is a solid‑body electric bass crafted to capture the feel and tone of early 1960s Jazz Bass designs, with the added expressiveness of a fretless fingerboard. Its poplar body is finished in a classic 3‑Color Sunburst gloss that highlights the curves and contours of the instrument. The bolt‑on maple neck features a slim “C”‑style profile and is topped with a fretless laurel fingerboard, allowing for smooth slides, micro‑tonal expression, and the distinctive vocal quality associated with fretless instruments. The 34″ scale length and standard Jazz Bass ergonomics support balanced string tension and familiar playability.

Electronics on this Jazz Bass include two single‑coil Jazz Bass pickups positioned at the neck and bridge, each controlled by its own volume knob and a shared master tone control. The combination of pickups provides a wide tonal palette—from warm, rounded neck voices to more defined, punchy bridge tones—while the fretless fingerboard adds a fluid, expressive character to the sound. The passive circuitry preserves dynamic response and organic interaction with amplifiers and effects.

Hardware consists of a four‑saddle bridge designed for precise intonation and string spacing, along with sealed tuning machines that help maintain tuning stability. The fretless fingerboard is finished for smooth playability without frets, encouraging expressive slides and nuanced articulations. The Classic Vibe ’60s Jazz Bass Fretless in 3‑Color Sunburst blends vintage‑inspired design, versatile passive electronics, and the unique feel of a fretless instrument, making it suitable for genres from jazz and soul to rock and fusion.
