A Jazz Bass Designed as an Entry Point into the Fender Universe

The Affinity Series Jazz Bass follows the codes that made the Jazz Bass format famous: ergonomics, versatility, and a distinct sonic identity. Within the Squier range, this series emphasizes accessibility and playability, with design choices focused on comfort and quick handling, while maintaining a "vintage" aesthetic thanks to the old-style open tuners.

For Which Bassist and Styles

This electric bass is particularly aimed at beginners and developing musicians looking for a reliable instrument to rehearse, play in a band, and record at home. The Jazz Bass configuration (two single coils) covers a wide palette: funk and slap (clean attack), rock (presence and definition), pop (clean and balanced sound), as well as jazz and soul (warmth from the neck pickup). The slim neck and modern radius also facilitate fast moves and nuanced playing.

The Sound

With its two ceramic single-coil pickups, this Jazz Bass delivers an articulate and dynamic sound. The neck pickup provides warmth and foundation, ideal for a round fingerstyle, while the bridge pickup adds bite, precision, and a tighter grain that stands out well in a mix. The two independent volumes allow you to blend the pickups to find your balance between thickness and clarity, and the master tone softens the highs to go from a modern sound to a more mellow color. The standard 4-saddle bridge promotes clean intonation adjustment and stable response.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

This model comes with nickel-plated steel strings in .045-.105 gauge: you can keep this gauge to maintain the original feel and balance when replacing strings. For a softer play, a lighter gauge may suit, while a heavier gauge will provide more resistance under the fingers.
