As Iron Maiden celebrate their landmark 50th Anniversary, they stand as one of heavy metal’s most influential and enduring forces since forming in East London in 1975. Seen as pioneering the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the band reached new heights with their unmistakable sound and theatrical performances. Their signature style features galloping bass lines, multi-guitar harmonies and operatic vocals, while their omnipotent figurehead “Eddie” has evolved to become one of metal’s most enduring cultural icons. Selling over 100 million records across 17 studio albums, Iron Maiden has built a devoted global following – a testament to their five-decade legacy of shaping metal’s evolution. Steve Harris’ dynamic basslines have made him one of the most influential metal bassists alive. Harris has stayed true to his battle-hardened Fender® Precision Bass® over the years, and his new 50th Anniversary signature model now comes in an elegant Satin Black finish with an all-maple neck and body with complementing mirrored pickguard. Other ironclad features include a powerful Precision split P Bass® pickup, Fender® Vintage Precision Bridge, Fender® round-wound strings and Harris’ signature on the back of the headstock. A set of Rotosound® Steve Harris Signature flat-wound strings are included in the gig bag.
