Product Description

The Squier Classic Vibe Bass VI is a faithful tribute to a legendary "secret weapon" of experimental producers and players — originally produced between 1961 to 1975 by Fender. Tuned an octave lower than a guitar and featuring a vintage-style tremolo, the Bass VI is the perfect companion for musicians daring enough to venture into new sonic territory!

Boasting an exclusive-to-Andertons Purple Metallic finish with a matching headstock, vibrant-sounding single-coil pickups, a player-friendly "C"-shaped neck with a 9.5" fingerboard radius and 'narrow tall' frets, a 30" scale and nickel-plated hardware — this peculiar instrument will inspire you with its unconventional yet intriguing design.

Key Features

  • Poplar Body — Lightweight material with a balanced sound; the perfect tonal foundation for the pickups.
  • Bolt-On Construction — Produces a snappy note response for an immediate playing experience.
  • 30" Scale Length — Same dimensions of most "short-scale" basses. The perfect middle ground between typical electric and bass guitar scale lengths, offering loose and highly-playable string tension.
  • "C"-Shaped Neck — Slim profile provides comfortable playability, suitable for both traditional and contemporary players.
  • Vintage-Tint Gloss Neck Finish — Gives the guitar an aged look reminiscent of true '60s and '70s instruments.
  • Narrow Tall Frets — Offer a controllable feel for wide vibrato and pitch-perfect string bends.
  • Fender-Designed Alnico Pickups — Three single-coils deliver the clear, bell-like sounds synonymous with Fender guitars. Extensive pickup switching circuitry expands their tonal palette too!
  • Vintage-Style Floating Tremolo — Embellish chords and lead lines with smooth, expressive vibrato.
  • Bone Nut — Classic, low-friction material minimises unwanted tuning slips and enhances sustain.
  • Vintage-Style Tuners — High-quality, old-school tuning machines allow for precise string pitching.

A wonderful guitar for the price. The bass VI offers a unique tonal quality you cannot find elsewhere. The purple metallic with the matching headstock is a beautiful sight, and it really fits the “classic vibe” that Squier/Fender showcases. The guitar itself will need a couple upgrades, but anyone looking to make their bass vi optimal will be doing the same (update bridge, tuners, & strings) but out of the box it is a perfectly serviceable instrument.
