Frequently Asked Questions
It's brighter and more articulate than a P-Bass, lacking the same deep fundamental, but offers a distinctive, more 'woody' character.
It's specifically an early '60s 'C' profile – thinner and more rounded than later Fender necks, offering a more vintage feel.
While made in Mexico, the Vintera II series boasts a solid build with good hardware and a playable setup, though it won’t have the premium appointments of an American-made Fender.
