Fender – Tom Hamilton’s Aerosmith, 1996 American Vintage Reissue Series, US Custom Shop P Bass, (#28)
We just received about 120 basses, guitars and amps from Tom Hamilton of Aerosmith. Tom is a founding member of Aerosmith. After 50 years in one of the hardest touring bands ever, he’s accumulated so much gear that’s he’s asked us to help put it in the hands of people who can love it as much as he has. This gear has made rock and roll history on the world’s largest stages and most intense studio scrutiny. Now it’s your turn to take it, and make your own rock history.
From the Tom Hamilton Aerosmith Collection.
This Fender 1996 VR Series reissue P bass is identical to the P bass Tom played for decades staring in the early Aerosmith years. Tom can be seen playing an identical bass in Aerosmith’s 1980s Lightning Strikes video below.
The bass shows significant signs of use. It bass included some very unique case candy. First, a set list from Aerosmith’s 8/13/2019 show at The MGM in National Harbor MD was found inside the bass’s case. Next, all the original paperwork and strap lock, still in their original plastic pouch, and finally a receipt for setting up this new Fender guitar from Mouradian Music in Cambridge, MA. The receipt is made out to Collins Management. Collins Management handled Aerosmith from 1984-1996. Tim Collins has a long significant history with Aerosmith. He turned a spiraling Aerosmith on the verge of breaking up, into the biggest and best selling rock band in America. He and the band parted in 1996 in a flurry of lawsuits that dragged on for years.
All are included with this bass.
Serial Number: #V004351
The guitar is identified by an Aerosmith inventory tag. It includes a hardshell Fender case, one of Tom Hamilton’s custom bass pics and a certificate of authenticity signed by Tom Hamilton.
Acquired directly from Tom Hamilton. Tom’s bass tech personally inspected the bass and confirmed it was in excellent working condition with no notable issues.
While supplies last; we have a stack of Tom Hamilton’s bass guitar straps, in which we will include one plus a set list with every bass order until we run out.
