Fender’s world-famous Custom Shop cut no corners (besides the ones they needed to) in re-creating this historic machine, from the hand-wound ’57 Precision Bass pickup, to the quartersawn maple neck, with its era-accurate soft "V" profile. Vintage detailing is augmented by the inclusion of a classic top-mounted bridge, optimizing intonation to perfect that rich low-end thump. Step out of time with this raucous relic to experience timeless Fender tone, decades in the making.Balanced, bold bass Fender’s Custom Shop always does their homework, and the 2-piece alder body gets an A+, carrying cutting mids and bold bass, thanks to its naturally luscious warmth and sustain. Alder may not normally be known for its upper register, but that A+ wasn’t for nothing. Opting for maple in both the neck and fingerboard does wonders to the P Bass’s sonic profile. This tonewood’s tight bass boasts phenomenal, balanced projection, with excellent note separation, remaining bright across all four strings without sounding tinny. Its natural light weight is welcomed in a bass, in addition to being very forgiving with changing climates, allowing you to focus on this well-rounded aural offering.Time-honored tones As the old adage goes, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Fender’s P Bass design hasn endured for the better part of a century for good reason, and the ’58 is brimming with character. The maple neck is quartersawn as one piece, ensuring stability and consistent tone, with a lacquer finish to embolden the 1957-style soft "V" neck profile. The fingerboard features a 9.5-inch radius, topped with 20 narrow-tall (6105) frets and ready to rock. Vintage-style tuning machines and disk string tree take the strings from the Strat-style headstock through a bone nut, down to the historic top-mounted bridge. With its individual threaded saddles, intonation and height adjustment are a breeze.Fender comes alive Vintage panache colors the electronics of this bass, precision-designed to reflect their heritage in quality as much as aesthetics. The Custom Shop’s hand-wound ’57 Precision Bass split-coil pickup rocks a thundering low-end thump, delivering a robust lower register that refuses to quit. Dial it back or crank it out with the volume and tone controls, comfortably situated atop a single-ply gold anodized aluminum pickguard, housing vintage wiring so exquisitely replicated you’d keep any historian guessing.Fender '58 Precision Bass Heavy Relic Features: Custom Shop hand-wound ’57 P Bass pickup yields vintage low-end thump 2-piece solid alder body delivers robust bass and rich, warm resonance Maple neck and fretboard provide great note separation with bright, balanced projection Quartersawn 1-piece neck means sturdy, lightweight construction with era-accurate soft "V" profile Top-mounted bridge simplifies adjustments for string-height and intonation Vintage style tuners, bridge, bone nut, and disk string tree faithfully recreates stage-weathered aesthetics without compromising sonic quality Deluxe hardshell case, strap, and certificate of authenticity included SpecificationDetail Number of Strings 4 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Shape '58 Precision Body Material 2-piece Select Alder Body Finish Gloss Lacquer Color Aged Black, heavy relic'd Neck Material 1-piece Quartersawn Maple Neck Shape 1957 Soft V Neck Joint Bolt-on Radius 9.5" Fingerboard Material 1-piece Maple Fingerboard Inlay Micarta Black Dots Number of Frets 20, Narrow Tall Scale Length 34" Nut Width 1.75" Nut Material Bone Bridge/Tailpiece 4-Saddle Vintage-style Tuners Vintage-style Bridge Pickup Custom Shop Hand-wound '57 Precision Split Single-coil Controls 1 x volume, 1 x tone Strings Fender, .045-.105 Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
