Essential Information About the Fender Player II Modified Active Precision Bass, Rosewood Fingerboard, Olympic Pearl
- Modern Comfort: Modern "C" profile neck, 9.5" / 241 mm radius fingerboard with rounded edges for smooth playability.
- Precision Plus Versatility: combination of a Precision pickup in the neck position and a Jazz pickup at the bridge, both in Noiseless versions to reduce unwanted noise.

- Stability and Attack: HiMass bridge with 4 saddles and Open-Gear tuners with tapered shafts for solid tuning stability.
A "Player II Modified" Precision Bass Designed for Stage and Studio
This Player II Modified Active Precision Bass embodies the Fender spirit: a familiar Precision Bass foundation enhanced with modern improvements. Made in Mexico, with an Olympic Pearl finish and Nickel/Chrome hardware, it offers a classic look, while the "Modified" design focuses on playing comfort, noise reduction, and tonal flexibility thanks to the active/passive switch.
For Which Bassists and Styles?
Ideal for intermediate to advanced bassists (and perfect as an all-around instrument for serious projects), this bass easily covers pop, rock, funk, soul, gospel, and contemporary music. The pan pot allows quick blending between the Precision punch and the bridge pickup's definition, useful both in rehearsals and live performances.
The Sound
The alder body provides a balanced foundation, with present mids and a smooth response, perfect for making the bass stand out in a mix. The Noiseless pickup pair combines a solid neck-side foundation (Precision style) with more attack and definition at the bridge (Jazz style), while minimizing hum. The active preamp with its 3-band EQ (bass, mid, treble) allows precise tone shaping: deeper lows, sharper mids, or crisper highs depending on fingerstyle, pick, or slap playing. In passive mode, you get a more direct and organic response, useful for vintage sounds and simple setups.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To stay true to the original specifications, use a 4-string bass string set with .045-.105 gauge (nickel plated steel), identical to the Fender USA 7250M set specified.
