Five-string active Jazz Bass for modern players
The Squier Affinity Series Active Jazz Bass V is a five-string electric bass built for musicians who want the classic Jazz Bass silhouette with an extended low-B range. Its lightweight body and slim "C"-shaped maple neck suit both beginners and experienced players during long rehearsals or gigs. Two Squier Noiseless J Bass pickups supply hum-cancelling output across diverse genres.
Active preamp and noiseless pickups expand tonal
An onboard active bass/treble boost/cut circuit works with independent volume controls for each pickup, letting you shape clean or aggressive tones without external pedals. The noiseless pickups remove single-coil hum while keeping the articulate Jazz Bass character. Vintage-style open-gear tuners provide stable tuning for the extra string.
Straightforward setup
The bass ships ready for standard adjustment; the five-string bridge and nut are cut for the wider spacing, so a routine truss-rod tweak and action check usually suffice. Heavier low-B tension can shift neck relief over the first weeks, so re-check relief after the strings settle. No specialised tools beyond basic hex keys are required.

Questions about this item
How often will the active preamp's battery need changing?
The onboard active bass/treble circuit runs on a standard 9 V battery; typical life is several months with daily use, so plan on swapping it two to three times a year.
What limits how long I can play before the bass becomes uncomfortable?
The thin, lightweight body and slim "C"-shaped maple neck keep fatigue low; the practical limit is usually your own stamina rather than instrument weight or balance.
Does the active EQ add hiss or hum when the bass is plugged in all day?
The two Squier Noiseless J Bass pickups are hum-cancelling, and the active preamp is designed for low noise, so extended sessions stay quiet even at high gain settings.
