Fender Japan Classic 60s Precision Bass Sunburst 2016
Fender Japan Classic 60s P, sunburst, made in 2016. This is a simple and effective bass. The Classic 60s Precision replaced the long running PB62 model, before morphing again to the MIJ Trad series available today, which has different specs again. This has some nice 60s style specs: spaghetti logo, rosewood slab fretboard, tort guard, classic three tone finish. The neck is typical P stuff: fairly fat, round and comfy, works a treat. Tone-wise, this delivers a rounded, warm punch with a thick fundamental note and understated highs. It will sit on the low end of a mix just right, it has that classic charm to it. If you're after a simple working player's bass, this will tick all the boxes.
