    Thank you Fender for going back to rosewood. Not before time. Now maybe reintroduce it on the cheaper ranges too.

    For the Money these are fantastic....thinner neck front to back than the 50s which works for me....fast small frets I just got one in 3TS with Tort Guard my first P bass....this thing is awesome...

    Having owned an original 1962 Precision which was the best playing, best sounding bass I have ever had, this is right up my street. It seems virtually identical to the latest Original Vintage ii for half the price.

      Only difference is poly vs nitro, and so the vintera II is the way better deal.

    • @KeithCamplin
      @KeithCamplin 9 місяців тому +2

      There are some pretty big differences, especially with the neck. Bone nut, rolled edges, clay dots, and a 1.70” nut.
      Then you have the electronics, PV60 pickups and period correct pots, wiring and capacitor.
      AVII comes with hard shell case, covers, COA, and a bag of case candy.
      They also have a premium light weight alder body, and is all nitro, like said above. You also get hardware that is tooled on the original machines from Fenders hey day.
      Not knocking this bass at all, but if you really want to get the vintage vibe on a Fender Precision, the AV is the way to go.

    Nice Video. I own my V II 60's now for 3 weeks. The things I don't like is that CTS Pots, the wiring and the Mexico bridge. That's no 60's wiring and the CTS Pots have less than 240K. The Bass comes with the great Pure Vintage '60 Pickup. You only have to replace the wiring and the bridge with real quallity parts for a real killersound. The Wood is great!

    My main bass is an American Original 50's P that I keep flats on. I was wanting to get another P Bass to keep rounds on and was considering one of the Vinteras (50s or 60s). I remember watching your review of the American Original 50s P, so I know you have experience with it. If I were to grab one of the Vinteras, would it hold up? Obviously not expecting it to be on par with the American Original, but for a bass that I would be using maybe 5-10% of the time, I won't be quite as picky. I ultimately just don't want to get one and feel completely uninspired to play it if it doesn't feel too good.

    Demoing the bass's sound while using an effect pedal kind of defeats the purpose. What are you reviewing, the bass or the pedal.

      Slab rosewood fingerboard. It's not common since all the regulations came in regarding rosewood. Yes, slab fretboards are common, but rosewood has seen a large decline.
