Updated for comfortable feel and easy access to the upper register.
Since its debut in 1951, the Fender Precision Bass has undergone constant refinement to meet the needs and desires of the working musician. The Fender American Professional II Precision Bass may be one of the most complete evolutions of this time-tested, player-proven bass yet.
Bringing touches previously reserved for Fender Custom Shop instruments to a production bass makes this a very special player. Start with a lightweight alder body to build a classic foundational tone. The ’63 P Bass profile neck features a smoothly rolled fingerboard edge, sculpted neck heel and a satin neck finish that feels almost naked, making this an incredibly comfortable bass to play. Freshly revised V-Mod II Precision Bass split-coil pickup is more articulate than ever while delivering the punch and growl the P Bass is known for.
The American Pro II Precision Bass delivers instant familiarity and sonic versatility you’ll feel and hear right away, with broad ranging improvements that add up to nothing less than a new standard for professional instruments.
