VINTAGE STYLE FOR THE MODERN ERA
For players who want the style and sound of Fenders golden era, we created the Vintera 50s Precision Bass. Equipped with the coveted features that defined the decade including period-accurate neck profile and playing feel, along with a re-voiced pickupthis bass has all of the punchy tone that made the P Bass® famous.
For authentic, original-era tone we re-voiced the single split-coil P Bass pickup to sound more like the original. Seismic and punchy, it has the tone that made the P Bass one of the most popular electric basses. The Vintage C-shaped neck has a 7.25-radius fingerboard with 20 vintage-style frets for classic playing feel. A vintage-style, 4-saddle bridge with threaded saddles and vintage-style tuning machines provide original-era aesthetics, rock-solid performance and tuning stability. Other features include an anodised aluminium pickguard, chrome hardware and 4-bolt neck plate. Includes a deluxe gig bag.
