With the Fender 1962 Precision Bass NOS MN Sherwood Green Metallic the Fender Custom Shop introduces an authentic reissue of the Early-Sixties Precision Bass, which due to the New-Old-Stock-Finish has the look and feel of a brand-new vintage original. In addition to the lightweight alder body, Fender uses a bolt-on Quartersawn maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and strong "'60 Oval C" profile. A hand-wound Fender Custom Shop '62 P-Bass split-coil pickup with historically accurate passive electronics provides the desirable, bold Preci sound at the bass amp, with a rich bass and low-mid foundation bringing the grooves of funk, soul, rock and blues to life. In addition to the Fender vintage-style bass bridge and precise vintage-style tuners, the historically accurate pickup and bridge covers complete the Fender 1962 Precision Bass NOS MN Sherwood Green Metallic.
For the construction of the Fender 1962 Precision Bass NOS, the Fender Custom Shop relies on traditional woods of the highest quality, so that the instrument comes up with a lively response and a long sustain. The body is made of selected light alder, while the neck is made of sturdy quartersawn maple with standing annual rings. The strong "'60 Oval C" neck profile also promises comfortable playing characteristics on the 20-fret rosewood fingerboard.

Behind the bone nut, Fender Vintage-style tuners on the headstock ensure precise and stable tuning.
