The Vintera III Late '60s Precision Bass recreates the powerful sound that defined countless recordings during the era. Its vintage-style late '60s split-coil pickup delivers the unmistakable blend of deep low-end thump, focused mids, and articulate attack that P Bass players rely on. Whether you’re locking in with a drummer at a gig or laying down warm supportive grooves in the studio, the pickup responds with excellent dynamic sensitivity and clarity. The result is the classic Precision Bass voice: punchy, full-bodied, and instantly recognisable.
The maple neck features a late '60s "C" profile that recreates the feel of Fender basses from the period. Slightly fuller shoulders give the neck a substantial but comfortable grip, providing excellent support for both fingerstyle and pick playing. Paired with a 7.25" radius fingerboard, the bass delivers the smooth, rounded feel associated with vintage Fender instruments. Vintage tall frets provide slightly more height than traditional vintage wire, making articulation easier while preserving the classic playing feel that Precision Bass players love.
A vintage-style four-saddle bridge with threaded steel saddles ensures the Precision Bass retains its traditional tone and feel. The string-through-body design improves resonance and sustain, allowing notes to ring with clarity and authority. Threaded steel saddles help shape the instrument's classic attack and maintain consistent string spacing. This design has been a defining element of the Precision Bass sound for decades, contributing to the punchy response and focused low-end that players depend on.
The Vintera III Late '60s Precision Bass is fitted with Fender stamped non-reverse lollipop tuning machines, offering the distinctive vintage look associated with late '60s instruments while providing smooth and reliable tuning. A bone nut helps enhance sustain and tuning consistency, while classic details such as the 4-ply tortoiseshell pickguard, knurled flat-top control knobs, and vintage-style neck plate reinforce the instrument's authentic appearance. Every element of the bass reflects Fender's dedication to recreating the feel and style of the era, resulting in a Precision Bass that captures the spirit of the original instruments while delivering the reliability modern players expect.
