However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Key Features
The Fender Vintera III Late '60s Precision Bass captures the unmistakable punch and warmth that made the Precision Bass an icon of the ?60s. Built with an alder body and a maple neck topped with a round-laminated maple fingerboard, it delivers that classic Fender bass tone. At the heart of the instrument sits a vintage-style late '60s split-coil pickup, producing the authoritative thump, focused mids, and articulate note definition that made the P Bass a staple in studios and on stages around the world.
The late '60s "C" neck profile offers a comfortable vintage feel that sits naturally in the hand, while the 7.25" fingerboard radius provides the traditional Fender playing experience. Vintage tall frets give you just enough height for expressive articulation while maintaining classic feel. A vintage-style four-saddle bridge with threaded steel saddles enhances sustain and precise intonation, while vintage-style non-reverse lollipop tuning machines ensure dependable tuning stability. The Vintera III Late ?60s Precision Bass delivers vintage character with modern performance.

The Vintera III Late '60s Precision Bass recreates the powerful sound that defined countless recordings during the era. Its vintage-style late '60s split-coil pickup delivers the unmistakable blend of deep low-end thump, focused mids, and articulate attack that P Bass players rely on. Whether you’re locking in with a drummer at a gig or laying down warm supportive grooves in the studio, the pickup responds with excellent dynamic sensitivity and clarity. The result is the classic Precision Bass voice: punchy, full-bodied, and instantly recognisable.
The maple neck features a late '60s "C" profile that recreates the feel of Fender basses from the period. Slightly fuller shoulders give the neck a substantial but comfortable grip, providing excellent support for both fingerstyle and pick playing. Paired with a 7.25" radius fingerboard, the bass delivers the smooth, rounded feel associated with vintage Fender instruments. Vintage tall frets provide slightly more height than traditional vintage wire, making articulation easier while preserving the classic playing feel that Precision Bass players love.
A vintage-style four-saddle bridge with threaded steel saddles ensures the Precision Bass retains its traditional tone and feel. The string-through-body design improves resonance and sustain, allowing notes to ring with clarity and authority. Threaded steel saddles help shape the instrument's classic attack and maintain consistent string spacing. This design has been a defining element of the Precision Bass sound for decades, contributing to the punchy response and focused low-end that players depend on.
The Vintera III Late '60s Precision Bass is fitted with Fender stamped non-reverse lollipop tuning machines, offering the distinctive vintage look associated with late '60s instruments while providing smooth and reliable tuning. A bone nut helps enhance sustain and tuning consistency, while classic details such as the 3-ply parchment pickguard, knurled flat-top control knobs, and vintage-style neck plate reinforce the instrument's authentic appearance. Every element of the bass reflects Fender's dedication to recreating the feel and style of the era, resulting in a Precision Bass that captures the spirit of the original instruments while delivering the reliability modern players expect.
