I ordered a 60th Anniv. P a few days ago, but haven't received it yet. I know it's a "Limited Edition", but does anybody know HOW limited? (ie., approximately how many will be sold?) Thanks.


guess fender keeps back the production amount, limited is meant in time not in numbers.
and those series are rather marketing to raise sales, time will tell which become precious.
i'm curious on the three-ring-circus that fender will run when the strat goes 60 in 2014... :mrgreen:

Oh christ. When that 6-string sales behemoth hits the 60 mark, it's more than likely going to take over every ounce of resource that Fender has at it's widespread fingers.

I have just bought a 60th Anniversary Precision myself, but I'm looking around hard to find the strings model/gauges that comes with this bass! Till now with no success! :( A complete mistery and I´m pretty curious about that.

Anyway, she is a real beauty, a true precision with a great sound. TO BE PLAYED! Anyone knows about the strings? :)

Sheers... 8)

This bass also exists in 2-tone burst as well! :o

The 60th Anniversary P-Bass comes with a strong arm bar and a compound radius neck. 8)

These special touches are only available on the American Deluxe Series models.

Feast your eyes on this! Available in 2 color sunburst through GC only. Same price, different color! It's shown in the August catalog and on the website under "Platinum Gear". The Manhattan store (among others) have them hanging on the wall.

I guess the 60th Anniversary Tele comes also in that 2-tone burst finish.

Not sure if the guitar uses the same compound radius neck as the 60th Anniversary bass.

Y'know, I think the Sunburst on the 60th Anniversary P is beautiful. But personally, I like rosewood boards with sunburst. So I'm glad I went with the Blonde. But I admit, that burst is stunning! Here's my Blondie:
