Key Features

  • Alder Body – Gives a balanced tone, good sustain, and a sharp attack.
  • Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer Finish – Gives a deep shine, and a thin protective layer to the bass guitar while still keeping the natural feel.
  • Pure Vintage ’60 Split-Coil Precision Bass Pickups – Offers enhanced dynamics, and overall brightness to your tone.
  • “C” Shaped Neck Profile – The C-shaped neck on a guitar is considered beneficial because it offers a comfortable, rounded profile that suits most playing styles and hand sizes.
  • Slab Rosewood Fingerboard – With more Rosewood on the neck of the bass guitar, you get the dark attack from the Rosewood, combined with the snappy Maple tone, giving you the best of both tonewoods!

Featuring a premium Alder body, Pure Vintage ’60 Split-Coil P-Bass pickup and a substantial “C” shape hard rock maple neck mated with a 7.25″ radius slab Rosewood fingerboard, the American Vintage II 1960 Precision Bass reproduces the quintessential tone and feel of the original.

Stuff About Bass Guitars

Bass guitars form the backbone of a band’s sound, sitting between rhythm and harmony to give music depth, weight, and movement. Available in electric and acoustic forms, they focus on delivering strong, controlled low frequencies while remaining clear and responsive to playing dynamics. Factors like scale length, string type, and pickup design all influence tone and feel, allowing bass guitars to suit a wide range of styles and techniques. Whether laying down solid grooves or exploring more melodic lines, a good bass guitar anchors the music and brings everything together.

Stuff About Electric Bass Guitars

Electric bass guitars provide the low-end foundation that supports rhythm, harmony, and groove within a band. Designed for clarity, punch, and control, they translate string vibration into a focused, amplified signal that locks in with drums and drives the music forward. Different scale lengths, pickup configurations, and electronics influence feel and tone, from deep, rounded lows to tight, articulate attack. Whether used for simple supportive lines or more expressive playing, electric bass guitars are essential for shaping the feel and energy of a track.
