Fender Pawn Shop Bass VI RW Candy Apple Red

The FENDER® Pawn Shop Bass VI is descended from the historic Bass VI (1961-1975) that was embraced by guitar and bass luminaries alike. Jack Bruce played one in the early days of Cream. George Harrison sported one in the Beatles' "Hey Jude" video. Fender has updated the baritone classic with Special Design Hot Jaguar® single-coil neck and middle pickups and a beastly JZHB Humbucker™, and routed the potent elixer through a versatile 5-way switch. If you want unique textures for your music, Fender's Pawn Shop Bass VI will do the trick.

Fender Pawn Shop Series - the greatest guitars that never were
When you pick up a Fender Pawn Shop Bass VI, you're holding one of the most original instruments Fender never made. Part of Fender's fun and creative Pawn Shop Series, the Pawn Shop Bass VI captures the spirit of the mid '60s through the mid '70s, back when Fender began experimenting with alternative designs. Many of these truly unique instruments somehow found their way out into the real world, in time becoming the kind of rare treasures you might be lucky enough to find squirreled away in the back of a pawn shop.
