Description
Every bassist remembers their first real Jazz Bass, and the Squier Affinity Series delivers that moment without draining your gear budget. Under the Black polyurethane finish sits an alder body carved into the familiar offset J shape, paired with a maple neck in a comfortable “C” profile that lets your hand move fast through walking lines and slap runs alike.
The rosewood fingerboard carries 20 medium jumbo frets and a 9.5″ radius, striking a balance that feels natural whether you’re fingerstyle plucking or digging in with a pick. At a 34″ scale with a 1.5″ nut width, it plays like the bass players have trusted for decades.
Tone comes from two single-coil Jazz Bass pickups (S/S configuration), wired with independent volume controls for neck and bridge pickups plus a master tone knob – giving you access to that scooped, punchy jazz growl or a rounder, warmer neck-pickup thump with a simple twist. A top-load 4-saddle bridge and open-gear tuners keep restringing simple, while chrome hardware and knurled chrome knobs round out the look.
