Experience a revival of Fender's pioneering origins with the American Vintage '63 Precision Bass in Faded Sonic Blue. This all-new lineup of guitars and basses embodies the defining features and design elements of the era from the mid-1950s to the mid-1960s. Immerse yourself in the brand's rich history and innovative legacy, as the American Vintage series expertly preserves and brings it to life for a new generation.

Fender's renowned American Vintage Series has been a top choice for musicians since its inception in the early 1980s, signaling a triumphant return from the CBS era. In order to provide the most authentic vintage experience, Fender has reinvented their American Vintage series with enhanced features and specifications, meticulously crafted to capture the essence of the original instruments. Every aspect has been reimagined, from restoring tooling dies to developing new pickups and refining vintage colors, all based on thorough research and examination of the actual vintage guitars and basses. The result speaks for itself - each new American Vintage instrument is truly enchanting.

The American Vintage '63 Precision Bass in Sonic Blue is a tribute to a significant time in its history - the year 1963. This bass features a newly comfortable round-laminated rosewood fingerboard, which debuted that year. Other true-to-1963 details include a slightly wider maple neck, clay-colored dot inlays, and a three-ply mint green pickguard (or four-ply tortoiseshell pickguard on the 3-Color Sunburst model). It also boasts a new American Vintage '63 split single-coil pickup, lower-mounted finger rest, vintage-style bridge, flat-top knurled chrome control knobs, reverse tuners, chrome pickup and bridge covers, and an auxiliary strap button on the back of the headstock. Available in four classic colors - 3-Color Sunburst, Olympic White, Faded Sonic Blue, and Frost Red.
