The Jazz Bass is one of the most versatile bass designs ever created, and the Affinity version captures what makes it great. Dual single-coil pickups give you that legendary J-bass voice -- blend them equally for a punchy, midrange-focused tone, favor the bridge for growl and presence, or solo the neck for deep, round warmth.

The slim C-shaped Jazz Bass neck is one of the most comfortable in the bass world, making it particularly appealing for players with smaller hands or guitarists picking up bass. The lightweight body keeps long gigs and rehearsals manageable. The Affinity series offers better overall construction and hardware than the entry-level Squier basses, making it a solid step up. From funk to rock to R&B to jazz, the J-bass works in virtually every genre, and this Affinity version proves the design doesn't need a premium price tag to sound great.
