General
In their Vintage Modified series, Squier features this rarely seen 6-string instrument with Jaguar-like body: the Bass VI baritone guitar. This instrument has its origins in the '60s and does a balancing act between guitar and bass guitar. Its strings can be tuned an octave lower than those of a guitar and it has an exceptionally high reach for bass guitar standards. An elevated tuning with thinner strings turns this Squier Vintage Modified Bass VI into a baritone guitar.
Bass VI from Squier's Vintage Modified series: rich sound
This new edition of a classic Fender guitar is equipped with three pickups. Near the bridge of the Squier Vintage Modified Bass VI we find a Custom Jaguar single-coil pickup that is characterised by a crystal clear clean, but also a simple and rich sound. Near the neck and in the middle position this guitar also features Custom Jaguar single-coil pickups, and the middle pickup is reverse-wound with reverse-polarity to eliminate the unwanted 50Hz hum. Next to a versatile sound, the Bass VI also features a floating tremolo, Jazz Bass knobs and a tortoise pickguard. This exceptional instrument has an Olympic White finish.
Famous artists that have used the baritone guitar include the Beatles, Cream, the Cure and the Black Keys.
