Description

American Vintage II is a series of extremely accurate reproductions of revolutionary electric guitars and basses that changed the history of music. With body shapes, necks, hardware configurations, premium finishes, and pickups that are voiced and meticulously crafted to reflect the specifications of the time, this guitar condenses the essence of genuine Fender craftsmanship and tone. The

Precision Bass is the world’s first electric bass and is known as one of the most important inventions in music history. Thanks to the arrival of the Precision Bass, bassists had an instrument that could be amplified with a precisely iterated bass sound and easily carried around. Legendary musician Quincy Jones, who has won numerous music awards including a Grammy Award, said, “The Fender bass is the single technological advancement that changed music forever.”

Initially, it followed the Telecaster? specifications in many aspects, such as the oversized Telecaster headstock, slab body, and chrome control plate, but by 1954 it was updated to the same body curve and contour design as the newly released Stratocaster. The American Vintage II 1954 Precision Bass features an ash body in Vintage Blonde or 2-Color Sunburst with a 1-ply white pickguard to recreate the classic tone and feel of the original model produced at the time. The

1954 “C”-shaped maple neck features a 7.25″ radius fingerboard with 20 vintage tall frets, a Pure Vintage 2-saddle Precision Bass bridge with fiber saddles, reverse open gear tuners, finger rest and ’54 Single-Coil Precision Bass? pickups provide classic Fender sound and style. The

American Vintage II series is a faithful reproduction of the guitars and basses that built the foundation of Fender, and is aimed at players who love the tone and feel of vintage Fender. Guitars and basses that have made music history are revived with modern technology.

This instrument is priced at a special price because there is a dent on the tip of the head.
