The Fender® Vintera III series delivers meticulously crafted vintage recreations that capture the authentic look, feel, and tone of iconic Fender guitars from the '50s, '60s, and '70s.
The Vintera® III Early '60s Bass VI® in 3-Color Sunburst features an alder body and a maple neck with rosewood fingerboard for classic Fender tone that's full of punch and clarity. The early '60s "C"-shape, 30" scale maple neck with 7.25" radius rosewood fingerboard and vintage-tall frets provides supreme comfort and outstanding feel. At its heart, you'll find three vintage-style early '60s single-coil pickups that deliver all the deep and growling, rich and articulate tone that made Fender® famous. Other features include a vintage-style floating tremolo for expressive vibrato, individual on/off switches for each pickup, vintage-style Bass VI mute and vintage-style tuning machines for enhanced tuning stability.
Embrace the authentic vintage spirit and legendary sound of Vintera® III – where every detail tells the story.
