From its distinctive tone to
its definitive growl, the Sixties P™ is the embodiment of everything
that made the sound of the old school Fender Precision Bass great.
Built
on the shape of our sculpted Relentless™ metal covers, DiMarzio uses
vintage style enamel-coated wire and flush-mounted, fully-charged
Alnico 5 rod magnets to keep that rich Motown soul/funk tone of the 60s.
Our
metal cover is much thinner than a molded plastic cover, and the
compound radius shape matches the fingerboard arch. Our design puts the
pickups closer to the strings for improved dynamics, and the added
shielding makes it 3db quieter than a stock Precision Bass pickup. The
Sixties P™ is fully potted to reduce microphonics, and it’s virtually
noise free.
Our circuit board mounting system drops the height
adjustment screws below the pickguard, eliminating bashed fingers, and
the rounded corners feel more comfortable as you play.
The installation kit includes Billy Sheehan’s isolation mount tubing.
The Sixties P™ is a direct replacement for any American Standard Precision Bass and is handmade in New York City.
