Fender Vintera III Late '60s Precision Bass Guitar, Rosewood Fingerboard, Firemist Gold

New for 2026, we have the Fender Vintera III Late '60s Precision Bass. Continuing the legacy of the Vintera series, Fender has revamped the line to feature 3 distinct eras within a single decade: early, mid, and late. Each classification features decade accurate specs and finish options that have been meticulously crafted to recreate the vintage vibe, sound, and feel of their respective eras.

The Late '60s Precision Bass is crafted from a contoured double-cutaway alder body. Alder, a classic tonewood from Fender, is well-loved for its lively sound, resonance, punch, and clarity – a solid platform for bass players. The body is finished in a gloss Firemist Gold, an iconic custom color of the era. Attached to the body by a 4-bolt neck plate with the "F" logo, a 34-inch scale length maple neck sports a late '60s "C" shape profile. This profile is easy to play, is comfortably rounded, and gets thicker up by the 12th fret. The neck is topped with a round-laminated rosewood fingerboard that is accented by aged white pearloid dots and features a 7.25-inch radius and is crowned with 20 vintage-tall frets.

The 3-ply parchment pickguard is loaded with a vintage-style late '60s split single-coil Precision Bass pickup in the middle position and is installed on the body. Carefully designed to deliver authentic '60s tone, the pickup delivers punchy thump with clear note definition and articulation. Tone can be further adjusted to the players preference with the master volume and tone controls.

Anchored to the body, the vintage-style 4-saddle bridge with threaded steel saddles provide solid stability and intonation. Strings are loaded through the bridge, and make their way to the bone nut before they are strung to pitch with the Fender stamped non-reverse lollipop tuners. These tuning machines are pleasant surprise, as this model tuner was a rarity from the factory on P basses of the era. The bass comes with a deluxe gig bag for on the go travel or protection while in storage.
