Fender American Vintage II 1954 Precision Bass
Fender American Vintage II 1954 Precision Bass
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 Precision BassĀ®, the worldās first electric bass, represents one of the most important developments in music history. For the first time, bass players had access to a portable, precisely intonated, amplified instrument. As stated by the legendary Quincy Jones, the Fender bass was āā¦the one technological breakthrough that changed music forever.ā
Although it initially shared many design cues with the TelecasterĀ®, such as an oversized TeleĀ® headstock, slab body and chrome control plate, by 1954, the P-BassĀ® had been updated with the same sweeping curves and contoured edges of the newly launched StratocasterĀ®. The American Vintage II 1954 Precision Bass reproduces the quintessential tone and feel of the original and is offered in two colors over ash: Vintage Blonde and 2-Color Sunburst mated to a single-ply white pickguard.
Other key features include a substantial ā54 āCā-shape maple neck with a 7.25ā radius fingerboard and vintage tall frets. The Pure Vintage 2-saddle bridge with fiber saddles, reverse open-gear tuners, finger rest and '54 Single-Coil Precision BassĀ® pickup deliver classic Fender thump and style.
The instruments in the American Vintage II series are direct descendants of the original Fenders: designed for players with a fine appreciation for vintage Fender tone and feel and built with unmatched quality, down to the last screw. These are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender American Vintage II, the stuff of legends.
