Why do I need a 75th Anniversary Fender Precision Bass

[Frankie Fender]

I got a 60th Anniversary P (from a fellow-TBer) and I love it with all my heart and soul. So there's that.

That's a Fender 60th Anniversary bass. Not a 60th Anniversary P Bass.

This is what a 60th Anniversary P Bass looks like.

Well, the medallion on the backs says "Precision Bass 60 Years, 1951 - 2011."

The 60th Anniversary P Bass has an Ash body, and string through bridge and only came in Blackguard Blonde thin-skin lacquer finish with no medallion. see post #79

You do need it! How often does fender issue a
p bass
With a maple neck, a 9.5 radius, burst finish, rolled edges, black dots, hi mass bridge, and tuners I normally identify with MIM, all for the low price of 2 thousand dollars?

I know right? It's not like you can get that in a $600 bass....... oh wait....

I 100% guarantee you that these basses are utter CRAP.

I find that very interesting. What evidence do you base your certainty on?

You need one because you do not have one.

I don't see what's so difficult.

simple solution involving a little piece of plastic and 16 digits.

The road to hell is paved with little pieces of plastic bearing 16 digits

What justify the price, aside the neck plate? Seriously, it's all CNC and stuff. It's not worth the price. Fender is full aiming on mass production for a while now! In Europe, you get a custom instrument for that price. Come
on' !
