The Fender® American Vintage II series presents a remarkably accurate take on the revolutionary designs that altered the course of musical history. Built with period-accurate bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and meticulously voiced, year-specific pickups, each instrument captures the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone.
The late ‘50s to the early ‘60s was a watershed period in the development of the Precision Bass®, a time of transition that would see the introduction of many new appointments that would become synonymous with the P-Bass®. By 1960, the design of the P-bass had eclipsed the earlier cues culled from the Telecaster® - now the P-bass had a Strat®-style headstock shape, comfort-contours, pickguard mounted electronics and 4-saddle bridge. Adorned in 3-Color Sunburst and topped with a 4-ply tortoiseshell pickguard, the 1960 Precision Bass represented a more refined, enduring aesthetic for the model.
Featuring a premium alder body, Pure Vintage ‘60 Split-Coil P-Bass pickup and a substantial “C” shape hard rock maple neck mated with a 7.25” radius slab rosewood fingerboard, the American Vintage II 1960 Precision Bass reproduces the quintessential tone and feel of the original.
The instruments in the American Vintage II series are direct descendants of the original Fenders: designed for players with a fine appreciation for vintage Fender tone and feel and built with unmatched quality, down to the last screw. These are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender American Vintage II, the stuff of legends.

----------------------------
By the 1960s, the Precision Bass was the workhorse electric bass; from the clubs of Detroit to the beaches of Southern California, its tone laid the foundation for modern music. The American Original ‘60s Precision Bass has all of the features with which the P Bass conquered the world of music-elegantly simple, its sound, style and comfort are joined by modern playability.

Sto per acquistare un basso Fender e sto solo decidendo tra questi due modelli, entrambi suonano meravigliosamente 😍
Non puoi sbagliare
Come suono preferisco l'American vintage, ma sono più che sicuro che il feeling dell'original è insuperabile, in ogni caso entrambi gli strumenti sono eccezionali.
Il feeling è simile essendo stessi legni e stessa vernice e tutto… cambiano le misure. Più “comodo” l’ avri2 avendo capotasto 43mm (ao 44,5)
I tried an AVII last week. I can't stop thinking about it. Specially the tone closed is magical. The other option was getting an Original, but your review helped me to choose the Vintage ii. What's. your personal favourite by the way? And what about the neck? I found the AVII a bit too slim to be a P bass, but it felt very good anyway.
The neck is the only difference beyond the pickup. I confirm it’s thinner but it has vintage radius 7,25
Avri2 nut 43mm radius 7,25
Ao60 nut 44,5mm radius 9,5
AVRI II is the winner !!! beacause i have one 😊
😄😄
AO is the winner!!! because I have one 🤣🤣
@@PlayWithYourThumb AO is the winner!! because I've got one as well 😁
The best production neck Fender makes is the Vintera 50s Precision Bass neck in my opinion. It is a maple fretboard but is the only p bass neck in production(Not Custom Shop) with a 1.75 inch nut width, maybe I lucked out on the one I got but it is the best $1100 dollars I have ever spent.
@@donnix1192 Oh really? I didn't know that.
I think the camera should be closer so that we can see the bass up close. Anyway, great comparison! 👍
Did you find the 9.5" or 7.25" radius easier to play?
In my experience, sitting down 7.25 is more comfortable. But standing, the lower your strap, the flatter radius starts to feel better and easier to play.
One significant difference I hear is that the Am 60 orig is always about 10% louder in db which makes it kind of hard to compare.
I understand the difference in wounding on these pickups but that also means to get a tru comparison you need to adjust the volume level or the Am vintage ii will always sound weaker.
A real comparison means this. Don’t interfere in anything
@@mikev.1641 Seems like a lot of people misinterpret volume for tone. One has nothing to do with the other. It’s very easy to adjust volume level in many ways today so, to me, what’s interesting is the type and quality of sound at an equal db level.
Then, of course, if you’d like to have higher output for practical reasons that’s another matter but it has nothing to do with sound quality.
My impression a lot of times is that overwound pickups gives you more dark, less open sound, but on the other hand a bump in the low midrange and high bass frequencies.
If you match the output level of two different pickups you will hear the true sound.
But that’s of course my personal experience and there will be as many opinions on this as there are bass players :)
If the volume were adjusted for the video, then you wouldn’t have any concept of how loud/hot the pickups are in relation to one another. Which is absolutely a part of the instruments character worth representing in a shoot-out.
@@nomoredeathstars445 Volume is something you easily can adjust but sound-character is something else. I stand by my opinion that the best comparison between pickups is at similar output level.
@@MikaelBerglundBass I totally get your perspective-yes volume is adjustable. But natural output is also a part of a pickups character, and it’s something people want to know about, especially when it comes to p-basses it seems. If the AO is naturally louder than the AV, then that’s something I want to know, as it’s going to affect how the instrument interacts with a tube amp.
ottima comparazione. quello che aspettavo. grazie.
il radius è differente a feeling come vi siete trovati?
Il radius sull Avri è 7.25 mentre sul AO è 9.5.
Indubbiamente l’ avri avendo anche capotasto da 43 mm (contro i 44,5 dell ao) è più comodo
Radius e soprattutto larghezza capotasto differente
I like the American Original '60 because it gives me a solid and impactful sound, and the American Vintage II' 60 has a dull tone.
Li ho tutti e due e posso dire che l'Original 60 risulta molto più aggressivo, il Vintage 2, forse più equilibrato.
Stesse nostre impressioni. Ao molto più aggressivo in mid freq, avri più gentile e equilibrato. ma complimenti a mamma Fender, proprio quello che ci si aspetta come differenze tra precision 60 e 63
@@PrecisionBassFanpage entrambi da avere (insieme all'original 50 che ha il suo perchè :) )
volumi
differenti o sbaglio? l AO in cuffia risulta più “potente”
Assolutamente stesso livello, si l’ ao60 è più potente di uscita. Non abbiamo normalizzato per non “falsare” il confronto puro
AVRI II is the winner !!! beacause i have one 😊
Original win,I think...
Fender AVII killer tone! It wins.
wow... night and day. Light-blue P for me all day. I might refuse the darker if someone gave it to me for free... (I have enough mod platforms, thank you!). Ok, fine, I can sell and use the two-figure $$...
