Did Fender make any other basses in the '60's besides P, J, and Bass VI, and Mustang basses?

Are you only asking about solid body instruments, if so, what about the Bass V & Telecaster?

If you're after others I think the Coronado also came in the late 60's?

Edit - had to look this up, single PU Coronado in 66 & 2xPu model a year later?

I agree that all of the mentioned basses were made in the 60's with the possible exception of the Musicmaster Bass which If I remember correctly made its debut in 1970. :)

If the Musicmaster Bass made its debut in 1970, I'm sure that some prototype models made on to the streets in 1969. :P :wink:

Nope BC is right, the MusicMaster didn't come along until 1970 or maybe even '71. My bad.

BUT! I just remembered another 60's Fender Bass! I'm pretty sure the Fender-Rhodes Key Bass came out in the 60's. Ray Manzarek of the Doors played one I think.
