What we say:

At A Glance:

The Squier Contemporary Active Jazz Bass HH Sky Burst Metallic is an updated version of the classic Jazz Bass design. The Jazz Bass has been used across virtually every genre that features electric bass guitar and this Contemporary model expands on the brilliance of the Jazz Bass by adding active pickups, a sculpted heel, and an eye-catching finish.

Features We Love:

Contemporary Series

Designed to take classic Fender designs and give them a facelift for the modern musician. The Contemporary series Jazz Bass adds active pickups, black hardware, a black painted headstock, and a sculpted heel to deliver a fresh take on the classic Jazz Bass design.

Active Custom Pickups

The pair of Squier SQR™ ceramic humbucking pickups and custom controls are key to this guitar's impressive sound. The active pickups offer a controlled and detailed sound that can be dialed up for punchy rock and metal tones, but also deliver great pronounced jass style tones. The set of controls features a master volume and tone, a blend control, and stacked boost controls for bass and treble, giving you the ability to dial in a huge range of awesome tones across many styles of music.

Roasted Maple Neck and Fingerboard

Roasted Maple is loved for its incredible stability, impressive tone, and fluid feel as you work your way across the fingerboard. With strong resistance to changes in humidity and temperature, the guitar offers excellent tuning stability. Finally, the sculpted heel joint allows for comfortable access to the highest frets.

Who Is It For?

Any musician who loves the feel of a Jazz Bass, but wants something that looks a little edgier and offers a wider variety of tones is going to love this guitar.

• That stunning finish
