The Fender Vintera III Early ’60s Bass VI is a rare hybrid in Fender’s lineup—a six-string bass that bridges the worlds of guitar and bass, perfect for players seeking deep growling lows and expressive melodic range. Its unique design captures the spirit of the original ’60s Bass VI, offering the unmistakable offset body shape and versatile tone that made this model a favorite among surf, indie, and experimental players.

As part of Fender’s Vintera III series, it channels the meticulous vintage inspiration of the early ’60s, bringing the look, feel, and tonal character of classic Fender instruments into the modern era. Every curve, finish, and control is crafted to evoke the original era while delivering the playability and tuning stability today’s players expect.

The alder body resonates with clarity and punch, perfectly balanced by the early ’60s “C”-shaped maple neck, with a rosewood fingerboard and vintage-tall frets offering a smooth, comfortable feel across all six strings. Its trio of Jaguar-style single-coil pickups, floating tremolo, and integrated Bass VI mute give players expressive control over tone, from warm, rounded lows to sharp, guitar-like attacks, making this Bass VI as dynamic as it is iconic.
