Fender Custom Shop Ltd Ed Kyle Mcmillin Masterbuilt Phil Lynott Precision Bass Guitar, RW FB, Black

Few images in '70s rock are as stirring as Phil Lynott, bassist/vocalist of Thin Lizzy, wearing his aviator shades and hoisting his P Bass above the crowd. As individual as he was, this customized bass sported a black pickguard that became his signature aesthetic touch. Fender Custom Shop Master Builders have painstakingly recreated this bass in precise detail, as only the Custom Shop can. Not only is this limited-edition bass a true-to-the-era replica, but Fender also threw some extra Lynott-inspired goodies into the custom Anvil® roadcase for you.

To craft this instrument, Fender began with a two-piece select ash body, added a lacquer finish to let the body breathe with more tonal resonance-and, of course, the custom pickguard and a hand-wound '78 P Bass® split-coil pickup. The stable, rift-sawn maple neck has a lacquered headstock face. Along with an oil finish, giving it a fast feel that perfectly matched Lynott's fleet-fingered style. The 7.25"-radius round-lam rosewood fingerboard hosts 20 jumbo frets, while the body sports a Badass® II high-mass bridge for extra sustain and punchy tone. Other features include Dunlop® strap locks, vintage- '70s-style tuning machines, bone nut and a round string tree. Includes custom Anvil case, custom made leather strap and studded wristband, mirrored aviator sunglasses and Certificate of Authenticity.
