Sweetwater has launched a new Prime-Time deals event - see what they did there? - and this sweet reduction of $80 off the asking price off this Squier bass is well worth a closer look.

The Squier Contemporary Active Jazz Bass HH were originally priced at $479, but are slashed to $399 for a four-string, and $449 for the five-string model, both of which are available in four finishes that are exclusive to Sweetwater - Satin Black, Midnight Satin, Burgundy Satin and Olive Satin.

Positioned as a modern update of the classic Fender Jazz Bass tailored for contemporary players, Squier’s Contemporary Active Bass features two SQR active ceramic humbuckers and onboard preamp, as well as a C-shaped neck profile with 12”-radius fingerboard, black chrome hardware and smart matching painted headstocks.
