Fender American Vintage II 1954 Precision Bass 2-Tone Sunburst Fender

This is the new American Vintage II 1954 Precision Bass in 2-Tone Sunburst. The American Vintage II Series is a continuation and improvement upon the beloved Fender American Vintage Series that pays homage to Fender’s history and heritage.

The Precision Bass®, the world’s 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 “…the one technological breakthrough that changed music forever.”

Although it initially shared many design cues with the Telecaster®, such as an oversized Tele® headstock, slab body and chrome control plate, by 1954, the P-Bass® had been updated with the same sweeping curves and contoured edges of the newly launched Stratocaster®. 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.

If you want an American-made Fender that has all of the historically-accurate parts and tones, it doesn’t get much better than the American Vintage II series!
