Fender Ltd Ed Sandblasted P Bass MN SBT

General

If you're looking for a Fender P-Bass with a striking look then this Limited Edition Sandblasted Precision Bass might be your next bass guitar. It is a Limited Edition in two versions, including this Sapphire Blue Transparent one. For this exceptional finish, the body is painted blue and then sandblasted, creating parallel grooves in the ash that are then accentuated by black filler and complemented with a black pickguard. As wood is a natural product, no two bodies are exactly the same, making every (bass) guitar that's gone through this process truly unique.

Construction

The ash body ensures a balanced tone and is lighter than the more commonly used alder. It also has a more open grain structure that is perfect for a finish such as this one. Additionally, this guitar sports a bolt-on neck with a comfortable C profile and a maple fretboard with 20 medium-jumbo frets. It is equipped with just a single American Standard Alnico V Split Single-Coil P-Bass pickup for the distinct and powerful P-Bass Punch. As the pickup is made of two separate coils it also functions as a humbucker, ridding you of the annoying 50Hz hum. Together with the open-gear machine heads, the solid 4-saddle bridge ensures sublime tuning stability.

Limited edition

It may be clear that the finish of these Sandblasted instruments is quite a process, which is why Fender decided to limit the amount of guitars and bass guitars. This has its advantages as the limited supply ensures the instruments' exclusiveness. On the downside, there aren't that many of them available, so be quick to order yours today.
