Classic Mustang Punch and Power

Featuring the classic offset Mustang body, the Squier Classic Vibe Mustang Bass '60s four-string bass guitar delivers great looks and tone at a great value. The maple neck with "C"-shaped profile sets a standard for playability, and the addition of a real bone nut enhances tone and tuning stability. The Fender-designed split single-coil pickup with alnico magnets delivers punchy tone for a variety of musical styles. And with its shorter 30" scale length, the Squier Classic Vibe Mustang Bass '60s combines impressive low-end punch with fluid playability.

Fender-designed split single-coil pickup

Squier equips the Classic Vibe Mustang Bass '60s with a Fender-designed split single-coil bass pickup, with alnico magnets for maximum tone. The pickup is positioned to capture the fullest tone from the Mustang Bass, and Volume and Tone controls help you fine-tune your sound.

Classic '60s design

Squier tapped into the iconic design of the original 1966 Fender Mustang to create the Squier Classic Vibe Mustang Bass '60s. You get the classic body with its unique shape and a smooth-playing maple neck. It even sports the original-looking Mustang Bass bridge, with adjustable saddles for adjustable intonation.

Short-scale feel and tone

The Classic Vibe Mustang Bass '60s has a shorter 30" scale length for comfortable playability. The shorter scale length is great for younger players, but is also fun for players of any level. And many bass players at Sweetwater turn to a short-scale bass for their deeper, thumpier tone compared to standard-scale basses.

Squier Classic Vibe Mustang Bass '60s 4-string Bass Features:

  • '60s-style Mustang bass looks and tone
  • Maple C-shape neck offers a stout feel without being cumbersome
  • Real bone nut enhances tone and tuning stability
  • Fender-designed split single-coil pickup delivers powerful lows and punchy mids
  • Volume and Tone controls for fine-tuning your sound

I'm impressed!

First, I'm a guitar player who needs to play bass occasionally (either home recording or subbing at church). This is a FUN bass with a level of quality that really surprised me. Neck, finish, frets... all excellent. Came setup from Sweetwater ready to play. Intonation was spot-on. My ONLY complaint is the fact that the pickguard on mine was cut in such a way that the repeated pattern of this cheap tortoise design is clearly visible (the dark spots on either side in pictures I've added). The red sticker was blocking one spot in the Gallery photos... so couldn't quite see that when I purchased. But, again, at this price point I expect cheaper materials. Otherwise, I'd recommend this bass to anyone.

Show Stopper

I own quite a few Mustang Basses.. With some work out of the box..The Squier Mustang can hang with any USA or Japan made Mustang.. The set-up was a disaster out of the box... thruss rod needed adjustment.. Bass had a horrible clanking noise..on the "A" string.. Had to buy a hipshot string tree..to correct the issue.. I put La bella low tension flats on the bass.. After some work.. the Squier Mustang is a beast..

I connected with this immediately over my Fender

I really wanted a Fender Mustang Bass. My budget was lower than a JMJ model and I really didn't want the Mexican-made PJ model. After some research it seemed like this was a pretty viable option if I gave it some love and did some mods to it.

Upon looking it over, tuning it up and playing it, I realized that it just felt right. I connected with it really quickly the same way I did with my #1 guitar. I have been using a Fender Player Series P-Bass for a while now and I always felt like I was fighting it to get what I wanted out of it and to get it to play the way I felt like it should play. This Squire not only was ready to play from Sweetwater, it is set up near-perfect for me already. It plays exactly as desired, and the craftsmanship is really stellar. The electronics are okay, but I bought this with the intention of putting some higher quality stuff in. I did go ahead a put a mint pick guard on which is more my taste.

Really great job, Squire! This is a lovely instrument that will be making music for many years to come!

One of the Best Short-Scale Basses for the Money

The vintage features of this bass are really amazing, and it sounds great too. I'm a big fan of the tanned gloss neck, and getting a bass for under $ with a string-through body, which really improves the sustain on this instrument. I also have the sea foam green version of this bass, and both are consistent in terms of sound and workmanship. The setup was good out of the box, but I had to adjust the intonation after putting a set of flat-wound strings on the bass. I prefer flat-wound strings, and I think they sound better on this bass. The only vintage feature this bass lacks that I would have liked is the lollipop tuners, which Fender has reserved for a higher-priced mustang that is more than twice the price of the Squier. The Classic Vibe line of Squier basses is excellent, and this one is the only one in the line I've seen with the string through body. Sweetwater worked with me to insure that I got the specific weight I was looking for, which for me made a big difference.

Squier Mustang Bass

I've purchased several Indonesan made Squier instuments and have been very impressed with the overall quality of all of them. Past purchases have included 3 Bass VI's and an Esquire. This Mustang bass did not disappoint. The sound of this bass is very punchy. Cosmetically perfect, no flaws at all.Thank you Fender for such great affordable instruments. Once again Leo Fender designs live on proving what a genius he was.
