Classic Late 60s Precision Bass Tone
An alder body provides the balanced and lively tonal foundation Fender basses are renowned for, delivering strong low end, defined mids, and clear articulation. This classic tonewood ensures a powerful presence in any musical setting.
At the heart of the instrument is a vintage style late 60s split coil Precision Bass pickup. Voiced to deliver the era’s signature sound, it produces punchy attack, warm and woody fundamentals, and authoritative low end that cuts through any mix with ease.
Authentic Neck Feel and Vintage Comfort
The maple neck features a substantial late 60s C shaped profile with thick shoulders for an authentic feel and tone. Comfortable and confidence inspiring, it suits both steady groove playing and more expressive styles.
A 7.25 inch radius maple or round laminate rosewood fingerboard delivers true vintage comfort, while vintage tall frets provide slightly increased height for smoother bends and expressive vibrato without losing the classic feel.
Period Correct Hardware and Reliable Performance
A vintage style four saddle bridge with threaded steel saddles provides rock solid intonation, excellent sustain, and classic Precision Bass response.
Fender stamped non reversed lollipop tuning machines complete the iconic late 60s aesthetic while offering improved gear ratios for enhanced tuning stability during long sessions and live performances.
