Dee Dee Ramone Bass Fender Review
Dee Dee Ramone Bass – Fender issued a sentimental signature series with the release of this Fender Dee Dee Ramone Precision Bass. Sentimental, of course, because Dee Dee Ramone, the bassist of the legendary punk band The Ramones whose ideology of ‘rebellion’ is known for its simple “three-step chord” music that stomps loudly with the spirit of resistance.
The more raw and rough the music produced, the more ‘punk’. That’s why we won’t see any special features in Dee Dee Ramone Bass.

Except that this is the exact same 70s P-bass model he wears, with Dee Dee’s signature on the back of the headstock, the words “Dee Dee Ramone One Two Three Four” on the neck plate, booklet, and poster.
Even so as a form of appreciation this is the best thing Fender can do. And of course, you don’t need a high level of punk to own this bass, because Fender makes this bass ideal for playing any kind of music.
