Squier Vintage Modified Electric Bass VI, Action Position Back
A unique and long-vanished Fender classic design, the Squier VM Bass VI features a 30" scale, non-locking floating vibrato and 21 medium jumbo frets.

Squier brings you the welcome return of a long-vanished Fender classic in the deeply satisfying form of the Vintage Modified Bass VI six-string bass. The original model of 1961-1975 has provided distinctively voiced low end for everyone from the Beatles to the Black Keys, Cream to the Cure, and many others.

The Vintage Modified Bass VI delivers authentically vintage-style look and tone, with a few modern touches such as a comfortable "modern C" neck profile and 9.5" fingerboard radius (the originals were 7.25"), and three custom Jaguar single-coil pickups with notched "claw" shielding rings (reverse-wound/reverse-polarity middle pickup).

Other features include the model's classic 30" scale (standard tuning one octave lower than a guitar), maple neck, bound fingerboard with 21 medium jumbo frets and pearloid block inlays, four two-position slider switches (on/off switch for each pickup and one bass-cut "strangle" tone circuit switch), tortoiseshell pickguard (three-ply white-black-white on Black model), two black plastic control knobs (master volume, master tone), and vintage-style six-saddle bridge with non-locking floating vibrato.

"Squier Vintage Modified Electric Bass VI -- It's a buy!"

Overall: 4 out of 5 stars

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Got this instrument from zZounds and am delighted with it. I wanted a short scale bass to record with and this instrument gave me that and then some. The only thing requiring set up so far is the intonation on the low E. I also purchased the Gator bass gig bag--well worth the $99!

Musical Background:

Playing for ~50 yrs. I am an engineer who was pro at an early age.

Musical Style:

Jazz, for the most part.
