Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition 1958 Precision Bass Relic 2005 – 3-Tone Sunburst w/Case

The Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition 1958 Precision Bass Relic in 3-Tone Sunburst is one of the most collectible modern-era Custom Shop P-Basses ever produced, and this 2005 example comes from the highly coveted NAMM Show limited run of only 100 instruments worldwide.

Finished in a beautifully aged 3-Tone Sunburst relic treatment, this bass captures the look, feel, and tone of an original late-’50s Precision with stunning accuracy. From the lightly worn nitro finish to the vintage-correct appointments and incredibly resonant body, every detail reflects the Fender Custom Shop’s dedication to recreating the golden era of electric bass design.

The two-piece select alder body is finished in thin, period-correct nitrocellulose lacquer that allows the instrument to resonate freely while aging gracefully over time. The one-piece quartersawn maple neck features a substantial yet comfortable 1957 Soft “V” profile paired with a wide 1.75″ bone nut, delivering an authentic vintage feel that fills the hand perfectly.

An authentic 7.25″ radius fingerboard and vintage-style medium frets provide classic old-school playability, while the iconic 1-ply gold anodized aluminum pickguard, 4-saddle vintage-style bridge, and reverse tuning gears complete the unmistakable late-’50s Precision Bass aesthetic.

The relic treatment is exceptionally well executed, featuring realistic mid-level finish checking, oxidized hardware, and heavy neck wear that makes the instrument feel naturally broken-in right out of the case. Tonally, it delivers everything you’d want from a great vintage-style P-Bass — deep, punchy lows, woody mids, and articulate top end that sits perfectly in any mix.

What truly sets this instrument apart is its rarity and provenance. Built specifically for the January 2005 NAMM Show, only 100 of these Limited Edition relic models were produced worldwide, making them increasingly difficult to find — especially in clean, well-kept condition.
