Squier Classic Vibe 50s Precision Bass White Blonde MN

Allmänt

This bass guitar from Squier's Classic Vibe Series is a budget-friendly version of Fender's first bass guitars from the 1950s. This Classic Vibe Precision Bass '50s has the same characteristic looks as the original, including a Tele-style headstock and a white pickguard covering both horns. For even more convincing Fifties-style, this edition is given a classic finish that's transparent enough to reveal the beautiful grain of its pine wood body. In short, it's an excellently affordable bass for lovers of vintage instruments.

The Classic Vibe 50s Precision Bass: Sound and Finish

Typical for this old-school P-Bass is the single-coil pickup in the mid position. The slightly lower output of this pickup combines with the pine body and maple neck to produce a full yet mostly bright, clean sound. The hardware consists of vintage-style machine heads and a matching bridge with four adjustable saddles, and there's a finger rest below the G-string to finish what is a historically-accurate bass guitar.

Squier and the Classic Vibe Series

The most famous Fender models are the Stratocaster, Telecaster, Precision Bass and Jazz Bass. While many other manufacturers have built quite a few imitations over the past decades, Fender wanted to be able to offer beginners an affordable alternative themselves and back in 1982, introduced daughter company, Squire. Ever since, Squier guitars and bass guitars have been built to Fender specifications and under the supervision of Fender themselves. The Classic Vibe models are part of a well-loved Squier Series based on vintage Fender designs, and each of these outstandingly-finished instruments delivers impressive sound for a remarkably sharp price.
