Traditional construction
For the Classic Vibe '60s P-Bass Squier uses the traditional bolt-on construction with 34" long scale length (864 mm). While poplar is used for the classically styled body, the bolt-on neck is made of maple. The C-shaped neck profile with 42.8 mm nut width and the modern 9.5" fretboard radius (241 mm) guarantee optimal playing characteristics and enough space to cleanly grip the strings.
Split-Coil Pickup and Vintage-Style Hardware
With a Fender Designed Alnico split-coil pickup in the familiar sweet spot, the Classic Vibe '60s P-Bass delivers authentic vintage tones whose massive low-mid growl lays down the right groove for any rock, Blues or soul band. A traditional passive circuit with volume knob and treble slider allows you to customize the tone. The body of the Classic Vibe '60s P-Bass also features a vintage-style bridge with four ribbed string riders for optimal intonation and string action adjustment. Behind the bone nut, Vintage-style tun ers guarantee a robust and accurate tuning of the bass guitar.
This is a really good bass for the money, lightweight & comfortable to play. It did need a setup when I got it though that was just a tweak of the truss rod and adjusted the saddles and I was good to go, no fret buzz no heartache and a very tasty P bass sound. Also looks as good in the flesh as in the photo shoot. So you thinking about pulling the trigger on this one? DO IT YOU KNOW YOU WANT IT
