Perform like the greats with the Fender Custom Shop 1962 Precision Bass, a top-of-the-line instrument that boasts a powerful, vintage-inspired sound and a rich, rockin' vibe. This stunning P-Bass has a two-piece alder body in an iconic 3-Tone Sunburst finish, giving it a classic look reminiscent of the basses used by legends like James Jamerson and Pino Palladino. Carefully sorted for lightweight, this bass combines timeless charm with effortless handling, making it ideal for bassists who crave both comfort and stage-ready style.
The neck of this Fender features a '60 P-Bass Oval "C" profile, a shape that feels comfortably fast under your fingers, whether you're grooving through blues, rock, or funk. Paired with a AAA-grade round-lam rosewood fingerboard with narrow-tall frets, you'll enjoy easy playability across the entire neck.
Outfitted with a hand-wound '59-'62 split-coil pickup, the 1962 Precision Bass produces that deep, punchy P-Bass sound with smooth mids and sweet, singin' highs. Roll back the tone control for a warm, velvety thump, or crank it for a more aggressive bite. Whatever your style, this bass brings versatility and that classic Fender growl right to your fingertips.
Chrome/nickel hardware, vintage nickel tuning keys, and a bone nut guarantee reliable tuning stability and precise intonation, while the New Old Stock (NOS) finish ensures a pristine aesthetic. Complete with a Fender Custom Shop P-Bass, this Precision Bass is the perfect addition for musicians who demand vintage authenticity with modern Custom Shop craftsmanship.
