General

For many bass guitarists, a genuine Fender Precision Bass from the 1950s is the ultimate model. If that's out of your price range, however, this Vintera series '50s Precision bass is the next best thing. It offers a similar sound, feel and vibe, and because it's made in Fender's Mexican factory in Ensenada, it's more affordable too. It also looks the part, of course, it has a similar feel, and thanks to the specially-developed split-coil pickup it gives you authentic '50s P bass sounds too.

Vintera 50s Precision Bass: familiar feel and top-quality hardware

The vintage C profile on the bolt-on maple neck, along with 20 vintage frets, give the Vintera '50s Precision bass a familiar and comfortable feel in the hand. The vintage them continues with the American Vintage bridge that has 4 saddles and the American Vintage Reverse Open-Gear Bass machine heads. That means this instrument has excellent stability too.

Wrote the following about Fender Vintera 50s Precision Bass Vintage Blonde MN with gig bag

Een maand terug heb ik deze bas besteld en inmiddels is het mijn number 1 bas geworden. Hoogtepunten: licht van gewicht (dankzij de swamp-ash body), een echte vintage p-bass geluid en ontzettend mooi om naar te kijken. Vorig jaar een American Original p-bass gekocht (ook bij Bax) en deze is zeker vergelijkbaar qua geluid en feel. Een echte aanrader voor degene die een p-bass willen of al een moderne p-bass hebben en op zoek zijn naar een classic-stijl p-bass.
