Overview

The Classic Vibe Bass VI is a faithful tribute to the secret weapon of producers and adventurous players that have dared to explore it since its original production from 1961 to 1975. Tuned an octave lower than a guitar and featuring a vintage-style tremolo, the Bass VI is the perfect companion to accompany any guitar or bass player into uncharted territory.

Player-friendly features include a slim and comfortable "C"-shaped neck profile with an easy-playing 9.5"-radius fingerboard and narrow-tall frets, as well as a floating bridge with barrel saddles. This throwback Squier model also features 1960s inspired headstock markings, nickel-plated hardware and a slick vintage-tinted gloss neck finish for an old-school aesthetic vibe.

Let me start by saying this bass is awesome, I wasn't sure what to expect when i ordered it, i was worried it would sound too much like a baritone with not enough low end, and as a long time fender player I thought the build of this squire would be inferior to my fenders, but I was wrong. This bass has a lot of bottom end, and depending on the which pickup switch you have turned on, is amazing for leads and rythym guitar. I will say though, if you play bass with your fingers, you are probably not going to enjoy playing the bass, the string spacing is tight, luckily I have always played with a pick....this is overall an amazing instrument, epically considering the price, when I compare it side by side with my fender strat I can honestly say that this squire appears to be better qualit, the neck on this thing feels amazing, frets are even, bone nut is cut properly, tuners are stable, pickups sound amazing, the only complaint i have is the volume and tone knobs seem like they will fall off after some rough use, they are the only part that spear cheap, and the strings it comes stock with are crap. But those are minor issues.
