A meticulously crafted '59 Precision Bass replica with authentic vintage vibe and tone.
This Fender Limited-Edition '59 Precision Bass Journeyman Relic gives serious bassists a chance to experience a relic'd classic with vintage tone and modern playability. Featuring a two-piece select alder body finished in nitrocellulose lacquer, the P Bass has a worn-in feel that produces a warm, resonant sound.
Iconic Tonewoods Provide Classic Sound
A two-piece alder body and one-piece quartersawn maple neck provide the resonant tonewood combination that shaped the P Bass sound. The alder body offers a balanced tone with solid lows and crisp highs. The maple neck provides rigid stability and clear note definition. Together, these woods produce the vibrant, articulate tone the P Bass is known for.
Hand-Wound 57' Split Single-Coil Pickup
Powered by a Custom Shop hand-wound '57 split single-coil Precision Bass pickup, this bass delivers the iconic tone that defined popular music. The split-coil design and alnico 5 magnets provide clarity and punch. Adjust the master volume and tone knobs to shape your sound.
Vintage-Style Parts for Authentic Feel
To complete the vintage vibe, this Precision Bass features a 4-saddle bridge with threaded steel saddles, vintage-style reverse tuners, a bone nut and nickel/chrome hardware. These parts not only look the part but also affect your instrument's tone and playability. The tuners keep the strings securely in tune while the bridge transmits string vibration efficiently. The bone nut enhances sustain and clarity.
Premium Case and Certificate Included
Fender includes a deluxe hardshell case to properly protect your investment. A certificate of authenticity verifies this is a genuine U.S.-made Fender Custom Shop instrument. Owning the Fender Limited-Edition '59 Precision Bass Journeyman Relic gives you a rare chance to experience the iconic sound, style and feel of an early Precision Bass.
