A '60s-inspired Precision Bass designed for today's demands
The Precision Bass is an absolute reference for those seeking an electric bass that is simple, effective, and immediately recognizable in the mix. This American Professional Classic Precision Bass clearly draws from the aesthetics and spirit of vintage models while adopting a decidedly modern approach in terms of playability and reliability. The result: a "pro" bass with Fender DNA, designed to handle studio work, rehearsals, and gigs without compromise.
For which bassists and styles?
This Precision Bass is aimed at intermediate to professional bassists who want a versatile, comfortable instrument capable of holding its own in the mix effortlessly. It excels in rock, pop, soul, funk, blues, and indie, with that typical low-midrange that "locks in" the drums and guitar. The Modern "C" profile and 20 frets also facilitate more agile lines and long playing sessions.
The sound
The alder body provides a classic balance: firm lows, present mids, and a clear attack, ideal for laying down a readable bass line. The Coastline '60 split-coil pickup delivers that essential Precision character: roundness, impact, and articulation, with strong authority in the low end. The rosewood fingerboard contributes to a softer attack feel and a slightly velvety top end. The vintage-style 4-saddle bridge promotes precise response and controlled sustain. Finally, the Greasebucket tone circuit allows for musical treble roll-off without artificially thickening the bass, handy for switching from a biting tone to a more "old school" sound.
Recommended compatible accessories
To stay as close as possible to the original specifications, opt for a long scale .045-.105 string set such as Fender 7250M (nickel-plated steel, roundwound). For maintenance and adjustments, a 3/16" / 4.76 mm hex wrench is suitable for the indicated truss rod adjustment.

Questions frequently asked
What sound does the Coastline '60 pickup on this Precision Bass deliver?
The Coastline '60 split-coil pickup produces tight lows and present low-mids, qualities sought after to support a mix. The alder body provides a sharp attack, while the rosewood fingerboard slightly softens the upper frequencies.
Is the Fender American Professional Classic Precision Bass suitable for rock and soul?
This model suits rock, pop, soul, funk, blues, and indie genres thanks to its split-coil pickup and passive electronics. The Precision character favors clear bass lines with authoritative low end.
What is the neck on this Precision Bass?

How does the Greasebucket circuit work?
The Greasebucket tone circuit reduces treble without adding bass. This allows for a more muted response without making the low end heavier.
