Fender Custom Shop ‘62 P Bass pickup Hand-wound split single-coil with punchy tones.

There's no denying the Precision Bass is the most iconic electric bass -- its thunderous sound was the foundation of modern music, laying down the grooves in Motor City during the '60s. Recreating this memorable instrument, with a few twists for modern bassists, the Fender 1960 Precision Bass Heavy Relic has the look, feel and authentic sound of an original model. The two-piece select alder body is lightweight and wears a Heavy Relic lacquer finish that grants it the look and feel of a bass that's seen it all while wearing in a distinctive way. The smooth-playing, tinted quartersawn maple neck sports a " '60s Oval C"-shaped profile and bears a modern 9.5"-radius fingerboard with 20 medium-jumbo frets for familiar playing feel. The Hand-Wound '62 P Bass pickup cranks out seismic Fender tone, while vintage-style P Bass wiring ensures you can shape it at will.

Other features include 4-ply Tortoiseshell pickguard, vintage-style P bass bridge with threaded steel saddles, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut and round string tree. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and Certificate of Authenticity.
