The Fender '55 Precision Bass Relic MN Vintage Blonde #R138367 presents the legendary 'Preci' as it was built in the golden era of the fifties and impresses with first-class vintage sounds and incomparable playability. In contrast to modern P-basses, the '55 Precision Bass built in the Fender Custom store in Corona, California, has a clear relationship to the equally legendary Telecaster electric guitar and remains true to the historical specifications in its features: a strong neck made of radially sawn maple, a split coil wound according to the classic recipe and traditional hardware parts with the chrome covers that were common at the time to create a genuine Mid Fifties Preci with unmistakable vintage DNA.

Authentic early fifties hardware parts

It goes without saying that a true '55 Precision Bass stands out from its more modern siblings thanks to its unique hardware features. The Fender '55 Precision Bass Relic MN Vintage Blonde naturally features the unmistakable black pickguard made of phenolic resin, while the separate control plate houses the two volume and tone controls. On the headstock, on the other hand, four vintage-style tuners with Vintage Precision Bass wings ensure reliable tuning stability and the classic headstock look. The hardware equipment of the Fender '55 Precision Bass is completed by two classic chrome covers that cover the pickup and the bridge.
