Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition ’59 Precision Bass Journeyman, Faded Aged 3-Color Sunburst
Embrace the spirit of vintage bass excellence with the Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition ’59 Precision Bass. This bass offers a unique blend of classic design, quality craftsmanship, and exceptional performance, harking back to the era that saw the rise of rock ‘n roll and soul music.
At the core of this bass lies a 2-piece alder body known for its balanced tone and natural resonance. It’s shaped into the classic ’59 P-Bass design, making it a striking visual representation of the era. This bass features a tasteful Journeyman relic treatment with some to-the-wood dings and some fine checking, delivering the look and feel of an instrument that has stood the test of time.
The neck is a quarter-sawn maple with a ’60 P-Bass Oval “C” profile, offering a comfortable, fast-playing feel. It’s adorned with a gorgeous slab AAA rosewood fingerboard, giving it a warm, rich character and providing a smooth, luxurious playing experience. The fingerboard also features 20 medium jumbo (6105) frets, providing ample room for intricate playing. The back of the neck is worn down to the wood from 1st-12th frets—unusual for the Journeyman aesthetic, but definitely not unwelcomed
The singular Hand-Wound ’57 P-Bass pickup at the bridge is a tonal powerhouse, delivering the beefy, robust bass sound that defines genres like rock, blues, and soul. Paired with the master volume and master tone controls, this Precision Bass makes crafting your perfect bass sound a breeze.
Keeping your tuning stable is a set of vintage-style relic nickel bass tuning machines for that authentic vintage aesthetic and the P/J Bass bridge adds to the visual charm while ensuring your bass resonates freely. To top it all off, it comes with an FCS P-Bass Tweed case, guaranteeing your bass is well-protected as you take your music to the world.
This Limited Edition ’59 Precision Bass is more than just a bass—it’s a testament to Fender’s legacy and a tribute to the countless records and stages graced by the legendary P-Bass.
