Fender American Vintage II 1960 Precision Bass Black 2023
Here’s a deal on a very lightly used and in excellent overall condition 2023 American Vintage II 1960 Precision Bass in Black. The American Vintage II Series is a continuation and improvement upon the beloved Fender American Vintage Series that pays homage to Fender’s history and heritage.
The late ‘50s to the early ‘60s was a watershed period in the development of the Precision Bass®, a time of transition that would see the introduction of many new appointments that would become synonymous with the P-Bass®. By 1960, the design of the P-bass had eclipsed the earlier cues culled from the Telecaster® – now the P-bass had a Strat®-style headstock shape, comfort-contours, pickguard mounted electronics and 4-saddle bridge. Adorned in 3-Color Sunburst and topped with a 4-ply tortoiseshell pickguard, the 1960 Precision Bass represented a more refined, enduring aesthetic for the model.
Featuring a premium alder body, Pure Vintage ‘60 Split-Coil P-Bass pickup and a substantial “C” shape hard rock maple neck mated with a 7.25” radius slab rosewood fingerboard, the American Vintage II 1960 Precision Bass reproduces the quintessential tone and feel of the original.
If you want an American-made Fender that has all of the historically-accurate parts and tones, it doesn’t get much better than the American Vintage II series!
