Product Ref: 331718
Step into the golden age of electric bass with the Fender Made in Japan 50s Precision Bass, a faithful reissue of one of Fender’s most iconic instruments. Crafted with precision and vintage flair, this bass delivers the unmistakable tone, feel, and aesthetic that defined an era of music.
Made in Japan with meticulous attention to detail, this 50s P-Bass features a lightweight ash body finished in a stunning Butterscotch Blonde—a finish historically associated with Fender’s early Telecasters. The wood grain subtly peeks through the translucent lacquer, giving it a timeless, well-worn look right out of the box.
A maple neck with a vintage-style “C” profile offers smooth, comfortable playability, while the 7.25" radius fingerboard and 20 vintage-style frets bring authentic '50s feel under your fingers. The single-ply white pickguard, knurled flat-top knobs, and reverse open-gear tuners complete the retro aesthetic.
Loaded with a vintage-style split single-coil Precision Bass pickup, this instrument delivers the fat, warm, and punchy tone that helped define rock 'n' roll, Motown, punk, and everything in between. Simple volume and tone controls make it easy to dial in the perfect sound, whether you're laying down roots or cutting through the mix.
