The Fender American Vintage ’58 Precision Bass is a reissue of arguably Fender’s most iconic bass and one of the most revered and highly sought after instruments ever made. When you think of late 50’s P basses, you think of big meaty tone, classy looks and an undeniable vibe. That’s exactly what the American Vintage ’58 Precision Bass gives you. An American Vintage ’58 split coil pickup provides remarkably big tone with a dynamic response. The Chrome pickup and bridge covers and a finger rest rounds off the looks of this classic.
