The Fender Vintera III Early '60s Bass VI Rosewood in 3-Color Sunburst brings back one of Fender's most unique designs with true early '60s style. The offset body, tortoiseshell guard, and 30 inch scale give it that unmistakable Bass VI identity. If you are looking for something that bridges the gap between bass and guitar, with deep low end and clear articulation, this one does it convincingly.

Built with an alder body and a maple neck carved into an Early '60s C profile, it feels comfortable and balanced despite the extended layout. The 7.25 inch radius round-laminated rosewood fingerboard with 21 vintage tall frets keeps the feel period-correct. Three Vintage-Style Early '60s Bass VI single-coil pickups deliver rich, growling lows with articulate highs. The individual on and off pickup switches and low cut switch give you serious tonal flexibility, while the floating tremolo tailpiece and Bass VI mute add expressive vibrato and vintage functionality.

Vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, and nickel chrome hardware round out the authentic details. The 30 inch scale length gives you tight response while still feeling familiar under the hands. We like this one because it captures the early '60s Bass VI formula without compromise. It is a creative tool that stands apart from standard basses.
