Fender Mustang Bass
Fender Mustang Bass Fiesta Red

The Fender Mustang Bass is a reissue of the '64 classic. This is a great bass for smaller players or anyone who likes a lightweight instrument with a short, fast neck. 30" scale length. Alder body. Maple neck. One split single-coil pickup. Rosewood fretboard with dot markers and nickel frets.

Hofner 5000/1 Deluxe 4-String Electric Bass
Hofner 5000/1 Deluxe 4-String Electric Bass Guitar Natural
also available Left Handed

Although it shares the violin body shape and body woods, and pickups, the Deluxe is a distinct departure from the Vintage models with a one-piece European maple neck, ebony fretboard, gold-plated hardware, and diamond-shaped mother-of-pearl headstock inlays. A dark, full-body binding that contrasts with the lighter woods of the body is another of the details that sets the Deluxe apart. Responsive and light in weight, it is truly a pleasure to play.

Hofner 500/2 Club Bass Guitar
Hofner 500/2 Club Bass Guitar Sunburst

In 1956, Walter Hofner had an idea for an amplified semi-acoustic bass. When it was brought to life, his idea resulted in a bass with a warm, woody, double-bass-like amplified tone. Many players revere Hofner basses for their historical significance as well as for their smooth, sweet sound and playing ease that eludes most ordinary basses.Because the original bass guitar had become so scarce and expensive, popular demand compelled Hofner to re-create the Club Bass 500/2. The new Hofner 500/2 Club Bass shares the feel, tone, and many features of the Vintage '63 but with a more traditional guitar body profile and a single cutaway

Fender Mike Dirnt Precision Bass Guitar
Fender Mike Dirnt Precision Bass Guitar Black Rosewood Fretboard

Mike Dirnt has a style all his own and he makes his music with Green Day on the very distinctive Fender Mike Dirnt Precision Bass Guitar. Based on the '51 P Bass, it's armed with a Custom Shop '59 pickup for a very effective twist. Combining a vintage vibe and modern appointments, it has medium-jumbo frets, a Badass II top-load bridge, rosewood fingerboard, and '51 slab ash body with arm contour. Very cool. Includes Fender deluxe gig bag

Fender Custom Shop Bass VI N.O.S
Fender Custom Shop Bass VI N.O.S

A unique Fender original returns. Originally created to be a studio instrument that could handle the Nashville tic/tac" sound, the Fender Bass VI has built a loyal following among guitarists looking for a baritone guitar with a look and feel similar to the popular Jaguar. Features include a bleached 3-color Sunburst finished on an alder body, small quarter sawn plain-grain C-shaped neck with a round laminated rosewood fingerboard, Jaguar pickups (middle pickup is reverse wound/reverse polarity) and vintage nickel Jazzmaster/Jaguar bridge. Includes a limited-release embroidered case and certificate.
