Product Description

Vintage Vibe, Modern Craft

This isn’t just another P-Bass. This is the Fender Custom Shop ’65 Precision Bass, a meticulous recreation of a golden-era classic, delivered with the thoughtful aging of a Deluxe Closet Classic finish. From the deep, resonant Alder body to the buttery AAA Rosewood fingerboard, every detail is crafted to transport you back in time, while delivering the stability and performance today’s players demand. The Super Aged Violin Burst finish is simply stunning, giving it the look and feel of a cherished instrument that’s seen decades of love and inspiration.

The Heart of the Groove

The engine of this thumping machine is a hand-wound ’65-’70 P-Bass split-coil pickup. This pickup is the real deal, serving up the foundational punch and midrange growl that has driven countless hit records. It has that perfect blend of warmth and articulation, blooming under a light touch and getting nice and gritty when you dig in. Whether you’re laying down a soulful pocket groove or driving a rock anthem, this bass speaks with authority and sits perfectly in any mix.

Unmatched Playing Feel

The neck is where this bass truly connects with the player. Carved from exceptionally stable quarter-sawn maple into a comfortable 1960 P-Bass Oval “C” profile, it just feels right in your hands. The 7.25-inch radius on the dark AAA Rosewood fingerboard provides a truly vintage playing experience, making fretting feel effortless and familiar. It’s a neck that invites you to play for hours, exploring every nuance of its incredible voice.

The Lowdown

We get it. Buying a guitar you haven’t played is a big decision. You need to know it’s going to feel right, sound right, and inspire you the second you open the case. We put together the questions we’d be asking if we were in your shoes—the real-world stuff that specs alone can’t answer. If there’s anything else you’re wondering about, just give us a call.

It’s a special Fender Custom Shop finish that gives the bass the look of a vintage instrument that was well-cared-for but played regularly. You’ll see light finish checking, subtle aging on the hardware, and a feel that’s authentically broken-in, not heavily damaged or relic’d. It’s the perfect middle ground.
A quarter-sawn neck is a premium feature. The grain orientation makes the neck more rigid and stable, which enhances sustain and resonance. You can feel the notes ring out more clearly. It also holds its setup better through changes in humidity, making it a very reliable choice for gigging musicians.
Of course. Every guitar gets our full Player-Perfect™ setup, but tell us your preferred string gauge and action at checkout, and we’ll dial it in exactly to your spec before it leaves the shop.
This guitar is covered by our 72-Hour Love-It Guarantee. If you’re not completely inspired by it, just let us know. We’ll make it right.
Orders ship same day in most cases and arrive within 1-4 business days with free, insured shipping. We’ll get it into your hands as quickly as we can.
Call us at (888) 794-8482. You’ll talk to a real musician who can answer anything you need to know.
