Product Description
James Jamerson is widely recognised as the single most influential bassist of all time. Consistently ranked #1 on “greatest bassists” lists, he laid down the groove on dozens of hit songs that defined the Motown sound. His incredible musical prowess and signature style didn’t just define a genre – Jamerson rewrote the rulebook for what was possible on electric bass, influencing legends like Paul McCartney, Marcus Miller, John Entwistle, and Geddy Lee.
Jamerson’s signature instrument was his beloved 1962 Precision Bass – the foundation beneath countless hits that shaped popular music forever. This stunning erac-orrect tribute instrument celebrates James’ legacy and his inseparable association with the Precision Bass, delivering the authentic vintage sound and feel that defined an era.
Every detail honours the original, from the premium Heirloom Nitrocellulose Lacquer finish to the era-correct neck shape that captures the feel of Jamerson’s legendary instrument. The custom James Jamerson ‘62 Precision Bass pickup celebrates those unmistakable tones that anchored the Motown hit factory.
Features
- Heirloom Lacquer Finish -With its subtly chequered patina, Fender’s Nitrocellulose Heirloom Lacquer perfectly demonstrates the elegance and vibe of a true vintage Fender instrument. It perfectly nails the vintage aesthetic while providing an overall more resonant tone and a reassuring assurance often only found in vintage examples.
- Authentic Hardware - Just like his original, the James Jamerson '62 P-Bass comes equipped from the factory with the pickup and bridge covers installed. Not only do these capture the look of the '60s, the bridge cover features a foam mute for that classic Motown sound.
- James Jamerson '62 Pickups - These signature Fender pickups capture the depth, thud, punch and warmth that define his recordings.
