Fender American Original '60s Precision Electric Bass Guitar, Rosewood Fingerboard, Olympic White

By the 1960s, the Precision Bass was the workhorse electric bass; from the clubs of Detroit to the beaches of Southern California, its tone laid the foundation for modern music.

There's no mistaking the powerful punch of this pickup that helped shape the sound of modern music.
