Fender Bass VI

Fender Bass VI Series at Andertons Music Co.

The Fender Bass VI is one of Fender's most distinctive instruments, bridging the gap between electric guitar and bass guitar with its unique six-string, short-scale design. Originally introduced in the early 1960s, the Bass VI has become a favourite among adventurous musicians thanks to its extended tonal range and unmistakable character. Whether you're creating atmospheric soundscapes, laying down melodic bass lines or exploring new musical ideas, the Fender Bass VI offers a playing experience unlike any other.

Unique Design with Iconic Fender Tone

Featuring a 30-inch scale length, the Fender Bass VI is tuned one octave below a standard guitar, allowing players to approach it as either a bass or a baritone-style instrument. Equipped with vintage-inspired single-coil pickups, a floating Jazzmaster-style tremolo and individual pickup switching, the Bass VI delivers everything from deep, resonant bass tones to bright, articulate melodies and ambient textures. Its offset body design and comfortable neck make it instantly familiar for guitarists while offering the low-end authority of a bass.

Perfect for Creative Musicians

The Fender Bass VI has found a home across countless genres, from surf, indie and alternative rock to film scoring, experimental music and modern pop. Its unique tuning and expressive tonal range make it ideal for songwriters, producers and multi-instrumentalists looking to expand their creative possibilities. Whether you're doubling bass parts, crafting cinematic soundscapes or adding something different to your recordings, the Bass VI inspires players to think beyond conventional guitar or bass roles.
