COASTLINE™ 70's MUSTANG® BASS PICKUPS

Based on Fender’s Pure Vintage designs, the Coastline 70's split-coil Mustang® Bass pickup is slightly overwound to deliver enhanced Fender warmth, focus and punch

MODERN "C"-SHAPED NECK WITH 9.5" RADIUS FINGERBOARD AND MEDIUM JUMBO FRETS

The Modern "C"-shaped neck delivers a comfortable playing experience with its smooth, ergonomic profile. The 9.5”-radius fingerboard with medium jumbo frets provides fast fretting and easy playability.

VINTAGE STYLE HARDWARE

Pure in form and function, the vintage-style 4-barrel steel saddle bridge provides classic playability and feel, complemented by period-correct "lollipop" tuners for authentic style and reliable tuning stability.

GREASEBUCKET™ TONE SYSTEM

The uniquely engineered Greasebucket™ Tone System shapes high frequencies without muddying the low end or compromising your fundamental tone, preserving the bass's carefully crafted voice. Unlike traditional tone controls, this sophisticated circuit maintains punch and definition even when rolled back.
