Bass – this is where the rhythm meets the melody, creating a righteous groove that forces you to move with it. Without the Fender Precision Bass, the original electric bass, dance floors would be empty everywhere. As music evolves, so do our instruments; the end result is today's version of this flagship instrument - the American Professional Precision Bass.
The Precision Bass was a truly revolutionary instrument when it was released in 1951. Not only could bassists finally play with perfect intonation, but they could also be heard along with the rest of the band. From funk to rock, hip-hop to reggae, all the music that has enriched our lives started with the thundering Precision Bass.
Developed by Michael Bump, the all-new V-Mod split-coil Precision Bass pickups utilize a carefully selected blend of alnico magnet types for a sound balanced with authentic Fender sonic DNA. The '63 P Bass "golden" neck profile fits perfectly in the hand and becomes one with you, while the narrow, high frets provide a familiar playing feel and perfect intonation.
Posiflex graphite support
The rods extend the full length of the handle, adding stability to the handle while resisting warping. The redesigned tuners use a splined shaft, creating the optimal breakoff angle above the nut while keeping the string windings tight for better tuning stability and increased stability.
The best of yesterday and today, the American Professional Precision Bass is Fender's latest electric-inspired form. Step forward and put your claim to legend on the line.
