A Precision Bass in the Tradition of 1951, Designed to Start on a Real Fender
Launched in 1951, the Precision Bass profoundly changed the role of the bass by making playing more precise and amplification more accessible than the double bass. This Fender Standard Precision Bass follows this tradition with a focus on essentials: an inspiring instrument, easy to set up, and immediately familiar to enter the Fender world with the right feel and tone.
For Whom and Which Styles?
This P Bass primarily targets beginners and intermediate players who want a comfortable, effective, and versatile bass. Its character suits rock, pop, punk, blues, funk, and many band or recording situations where a stable foundation, present lows, and articulate mids are sought.
The Sound
At the heart of the instrument is a split Precision Bass pickup with ceramic magnets, known for its clear attack, well-defined mids, and ability to "hold" the groove. The circuit remains intentionally straightforward with master volume and master tone controls: allowing you to switch from a bright, open sound to a rounder, vintage tone in one gesture. The poplar body provides a balanced output and even response, while the long 34" / 864 mm scale length ensures tension, definition, and stability in the low end.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
This bass comes with Nickel Plated Steel .045-.105 strings: to maintain the same feel, you can choose a 4-string long scale (34" / 864 mm) set in .045-.105. A
