Full Description
View Full DescriptionPunchy noiseless Jazz Bass tone
This Classic Vibe Active '70s Jazz Bass is loaded with Fender-designed alnico Noiseless pickups, giving you the snap, depth, and articulation expected from a Jazz Bass without the unwanted hum. Their dual-coil design keeps the signal clean while preserving the rich low end, focused mids, and crisp top end that help bass lines sit properly in a mix. Whether you are playing tight fingerstyle grooves, busier funk parts, or more driven lines, the response stays clear, balanced, and dependable across a wide range of musical settings.
Active control with useful flexibility
The onboard 9-volt preamp brings modern tonal range to this vintage-inspired design, giving you more control without making the bass feel complicated. With knobs for master volume, pan, master tone, and treble and bass boost, it is easy to shape your sound to suit different rooms, rigs, and styles. A mini toggle lets you switch between active and passive operation, so you can move from a broader, boosted sound to a more traditional Jazz Bass voice quickly and without interrupting your playing flow.
Comfortable feel with '70s character
The slim C-shaped maple neck keeps the bass comfortable and easy to navigate, making long rehearsals, gigs, and sessions feel less demanding. Its 9.5 inch radius and narrow tall frets offer a solid balance between vintage familiarity and modern control, helping notes fret cleanly and feel consistent across the board. The bound Indian Laurel fingerboard and pearloid block inlays add unmistakable '70s character, while also making the neck feel a touch more premium and easier to read under lower stage lighting conditions.
HiMass bridge for stronger stability
The HiMass bridge adds a practical upgrade to the classic Jazz Bass formula by increasing the overall mass at the bridge, which helps improve sustain, resonance, and note definition. It also helps the instrument hold intonation reliably during heavy use. Paired with vintage-style tuners and solid nickel-plated hardware, it gives this bass a dependable setup that feels ready for rehearsals, recording work, and live shows while keeping the old-school look intact.
