Fender American Vintage II 1960 Precision BassĀ®, Rosewood Fingerboard, Daphne Blue
The FenderĀ® American Vintage II series presents a remarkably accurate take on the revolutionary designs that altered the course of musical history. Built with period-accurate bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and meticulously voiced, year-specific pickups, each instrument captures the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone.
The late '50s to the early '60s was a watershed period in the development of the Precision BassĀ®, a time of transition that would see the introduction of many new appointments that would become synonymous with the P-BassĀ®. By 1960, the design of the P-bass had eclipsed the earlier cues culled from the TelecasterĀ® - now the P-bass had a StratĀ®-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.
