The Fender Vintera III Early ’60s Bass VI is one of the most unique instruments ever to wear the Fender name, occupying a fascinating space between guitar and bass while delivering a voice all its own. With its vintage-inspired alder body, comfortable 30” scale length, and classic early-‘60s styling, this Bass VI captures the look, feel, and personality of the originals that helped shape countless recordings. Whether you’re laying down melodic bass lines, crafting cinematic textures, or exploring new sonic territory, it invites creativity from the very first note.
Plugged in, the trio of vintage-style single-coil pickups delivers the unmistakable character that made the Bass VI a cult favorite. The sound is deep and growling when you need low-end authority, yet articulate and chimey enough to blur the line between bass and guitar. Individual pickup switches allow for an impressive range of tones, from warm and rounded to bright and cutting, while the vintage-style mute offers even more control for those classic muted thumps and percussive rhythms.
The playing experience feels every bit as authentic as the sound. The early ’60s “C”-shaped maple neck, round-laminated rosewood fingerboard, and vintage-tall frets provide a familiar Fender feel with effortless playability. A vintage-style floating tremolo adds expressive movement that few bass instruments can match, making the Bass VI a true creative tool rather than just a traditional bass. The Fender Vintera III Early ’60s Bass VI is a remarkable instrument for players looking to explore beyond the ordinary and discover one of Fender’s most inspiring designs. Available at Haggerty’s Music.
