Check out this one-of-a-kind Fender Custom Shop 1956 Precision Bass! Decked out with a New Old Stock White Blonde finish, this instrument has a sleek, rockin' aesthetic that pays homage to Fender's golden era. Still, its clean design imparts its appearance with a touch of modernity, ensuring it steals the spotlight anywhere you perform. But that barely scratches the surface of this outstanding Fender Bass. It has a powerful, thumpy tone that's ready to shake the foundations, courtesy of its '55 Precision Bass pickup. Read on to explore the incredible craftsmanship of the Custom Shop 1956 Precision Bass.
A 2-piece ash body lays the groundwork for this instrument's sweet yet bold sound. You'll hear deep lows and clear, articulate highs, the perfect combination to make any bassline sing. Not only that, but the ash body's gorgeous wood grain shows through the White Blonde finish, creating an undeniably stunning look. Connected to the body is a quartersawn maple neck with a remarkably comfortable '55 P-Bass Soft "V" profile. The neck has a decidedly vintage feel, but that's exactly what you'd want from an old-school thump machine.
Tonally, the Custom Shop 1956 Precision Bass delivers that classic P-bass growl Fender fans know and love. Crank the tone, and it'll roar to life with a throaty midrange. Roll the tone knob back to darken things up, and you'll have all the warmth and roundness you could ever need.
There's no hiding this instrument's breathtaking appearance. Its chrome pickup and bridge covers give it that instantly recognizable '50s hot-rodded style. Meanwhile, the maple fretboard's lighter coloration goes great with the White Blonde finish and contrasts the black pickguard for a striking look. And, of course, it has those classic '50s Precision Bass appointments, complete with the Telecaster-style headstock and control cover.
Get your hands on the Fender Custom Shop 1956 Precision Bass, and you'll never want to put it down. It's a bonafide vintage tone machine with looks that could kill, and what more could you ask for in a top-of-the-line Fender Bass?
