Description

Crafted with the discerning bassist in mind, the Nash Guitars PB63 is a meticulously designed homage to the classic 1963 Precision Bass. This electric bass guitar captures the essence of vintage style while integrating modern enhancements for superior playability and tone. Each PB63 is built in the USA and individually hand-finished, ensuring a unique character and feel for every instrument. The alder body provides a balanced tonal foundation, delivering warmth and clarity across all frequencies, while the maple neck offers a smooth playing experience.

The Nash PB63 is equipped with Lollar pickups, renowned for their ability to produce a rich and articulate sound. These pickups are hand-wound and specifically voiced to emulate the classic tones of the early 60s, making them ideal for a wide range of genres from jazz to rock. The bass also features a nitrocellulose lacquer finish, which not only enhances its vintage aesthetic but also allows the wood to resonate more freely for improved sound quality.

Key Features:

  • Alder body for balanced tones
  • Maple neck with rosewood fingerboard
  • Hand-wound Lollar pickups for classic 60s sound
  • Nitrocellulose lacquer finish for vintage aesthetic
  • 20 frets for a full range of notes
  • Individually hand-finished in the USA
