American Vintage '58 Precision Bass®

Model : 0191002

The American Vintage '58 Precision Bass® commemorates the first year in which the bass that started it all appeared in a Three-Color Sunburst finish. That classic combination is now a longtime Fender tradition, and the '58 American Vintage Precision Bass brings you other authentic features including a lightweight alder body (ash on White Blonde model), thick C-shaped maple neck with 20 vintage-style frets and black dot inlays, gold anodized aluminum pickguard with lacquer finish, and new American Vintage '58 split single-coil pickup. Also includes lower-mounted finger rest, vintage-style bridge with threaded steel "barrel" saddles, flat-top knurled chrome control knobs, reverse tuners, mounted chrome pickup and bridge covers, and more. Available in Three-Color Sunburst, White Blonde and Black.

Nice Upgrade to the American Vintage Series!

This is a wonderful new addition to the new American Vintage Series. Overall, it hits the mark on the classic Fender PBass design. The tone is fantastic. Very tight and true with a great mid range and sustain on lower notes. Fits all styles of music and sounds fantastic with the Fender Flats that are provided too. Well worth the money.
