Description
The Fender Vintera III Early '60s Bass VI Rosewood in Candy Apple Red brings serious vintage character to one of Fender's most unique designs. Candy Apple Red with a mint guard gives it that bold early '60s custom color vibe, while the 30 inch scale and triple pickup layout make it a true Bass VI. If you want deep, growling lows with the flexibility of a guitar-style platform, this one stands out.
The alder body delivers balanced punch and clarity, paired with a maple neck carved into an Early '60s C profile that feels comfortable and substantial. The 7.25 inch radius round-laminated rosewood fingerboard with 21 vintage tall frets keeps everything period-correct. The trio of Vintage-Style Early '60s Bass VI single-coil pickups produce rich low end, articulate mids, and clear highs. Individual pickup on and off switches and a low cut switch allow detailed tone shaping, and the floating tremolo tailpiece with Bass VI mute keeps the classic design intact.
Vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, and nickel chrome hardware maintain the authentic look and feel. The 30 inch scale length gives you tight, focused response that sits between bass and baritone territory. We like this one because it delivers true early '60s Bass VI functionality with a finish that commands attention.
