. . "The Fender Telecaster Bass (also referred as the Tele Bass) is an electric bass introduced in 1968 by Fender Musical Instruments Corporation. With few physical changes through the 1970s, it was discontinued in 1979 and reissued in 2007 by Fender's subsidiary Squier as the Squier Vintage Modified Precision Bass TB, which is still produced by the company. Released as a reissue of the original version of the Fender Precision Bass, it was named as \"Telecaster\" after the Telecaster guitar model."@en .
