Fender Vintera III Late '60s Precision Bass Guitar, Maple Fingerboard, Lake Placid Blue

Brand new for 2026, we have the Fender Vintera III Late '60s Precision Bass. Building off 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 constructed from a contoured double-cutaway alder body. Alder, a classic tonewood offering from Fender, is well-known for its lively sound, resonance, and punch and clarity – the perfect platform for bass players. The body is finished in a gloss Lake Placid Blue, a beloved custom color of the era. Attached to the body by a 4-bolt neck plate with the "F" logo is a 34-inch scale length maple neck sporting a late '60s "C" shape profile. This classic profile is easy to play, is comfortably rounded, and gets thicker up by the 12th fret. The fingerboard features a 7.25-inch radius and is crowned with 20 vintage-tall frets.

The P bass's 3-ply parchment pickguard is loaded with a vintage-style late '60s split single-coil Precision Bass pickup in the middle position to amplify tone. Designed to deliver authentic '60s era sound, the pickup delivers the perfect blend of punchy attack and thump with clear note definition and articulation. Tone can be further tapered to the users preference with the master volume and tone controls.

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