About the new Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition George Harrison 1967 Bass VI Guitar
Available only at Fender Custom Shop Showcase Dealers like The Music Zoo, this Limited to 100 piece run is a painstaking recreation of George Harrisons iconic instrument.
George Harrison’s sunburst Fender® Bass VI became an essential voice at Abbey Road Studios, providing the melodic counterpoints and textural layers that shaped some of the most admired arrangements in popular music.
The two-piece select alder body delivers resonant warmth and balanced midrange, with a thin nitrocellulose lacquer finish. The Relic® treatment in Bleached 3-Color Sunburst gives this bass the worn-in look and feel of an instrument that has seen years of regular studio and stage use.
The neck is shaped to match the profile of Harrison’s Bass VI, featuring a bound 3A rosewood fingerboard and white pearloid block inlays. The 7.25” radius and 21 vintage frets provide the period-correct playing surface that rewards a lighter touch with expressive dynamics, making chord voicings and melodic runs feel effortless across the 30” scale length. This shorter scale produces inherently lower string tension, lending a supple, elastic feel that invites both bass lines and guitar-style phrasing. A bone nut ensures precise intonation and open-string sustain at the headstock end.
