Squier Contemporary Active Jazz Bass in classic construction.
For the construction of the Contemporary Active Jazz Bass V, Squier relies on the tried and true approach. Accordingly, the body is made of poplar, while roasted maple is used for the bolt-on neck and fretboard. Here, the sweeping Offset-Design in conjunction with the narrow C-neck profile and the 12" fretboard radius offer optimal conditions for a high level of playing comfort.
Ceramic humbucker and active electronics
The Contemporary Active Jazz Bass V's electrical tone conversion is handled by two Squier SQR Ceramic humbuckers with beautiful soapbar housings, whose modern hi-fi sound promises a punchy and balanced output of every groove. To further tune the sound, there is also an active 2-band tone control that provides precise boosts in bass and treble, and a traditional passive treble cutoff.
Indestructible hardware features
In addition, the Squier Contemporary Active Jazz Bass HH V RMN Gunmetal Metallic features high-quality hardware equipment with indestructible functionality. While the Squier 5-saddle standard bridge on the body allows for optimal adjustment of intonation and string action, five Squier open-gear tuners on the headstock guarantee precise and stable tuning.
