Fender Custom Shop

collapse expand iconDescription

After selling over 50 million records ZZ Top’s Dusty Hill knows a thing or two about Fender bass tone! The new Dusty Hill Signature P Bass is a thumping tone machine and is not just another P Bass. A custom designed Seymour Duncan pickup, unique custom neck shape, and rear routed controls add to the low-down sound and playability of this instrument. Dusty came to the Fender Custom Shop and tweaked the bass personally.
