Fender American Professional Precision Bass (3 Colour Sunburst, Maple) Overview

Fender American Professional Precision Bass Overview by GAK:

New for 2017, the Fender American Professional Jazz Bass sets the new standard! The Precision Bass was a truly revolutionary instrument when it was released in 1951. Not only could bassists finally play with perfect intonation, they could be heard along with the rest of the band. From funk to rock, hip-hop to reggae; all of the music that’s enriched our lives began with the thunderous Precision Bass.

Developed by longtime bass pickup master Michael Bump, the brand-new V-Mod split-coil Precision Bass pickup uses a carefully selected blend of alnico magnet types for balanced tone with authentic Fender sonic DNA. The “golden” ’63 P Bass neck profile feels just right nestled in your hand, becoming one with you, while the narrow-tall frets provide a familiar playing feel and perfect intonation. Posiflex™ graphite support rods run the length of the neck, adding stability to the neck while resisting warping. The redesigned tuning machines use a fluted shaft, creating the optimum break angle over the nut while keeping the string windings tight for increased sustain and enhanced tuning stability.

Lovely satin finish on the '63 neck, smooth tuners, excellent pick-ups and a lovely finish overall. The intonation was slightly out on the E string only, the rest of the strings were bang on
