Fender American Precision

Fender American Precision Bass [2003-2007]Published on 03/04/03 at 15:00
I purchased this American P Bass (3 tone sunburst, rosewood fretboard) online from Musicians Friend for $899. I could've picked it up locally from Guitar Center for the same price, but I saved about $70 in taxes by mail ordering it. Hey, every dollar counts! Musicians Friend waived the shipping charge on this item; I ordered it on a Tuesday night and they shipped it on Wednesday. Nice....

Is there any more distinctive sound than a P Bass? This model nails it, dead on, and it has classic Fender looks.

Nothing to dislike about this bass, but I did need to tweak the setup when I received it. If you are not comfortable doing your own setups, or you have no one to do it for you, DO NOT mail...…

This is where the American made Fenders really stand out from the Standard (made in Mexico) Fenders.... Vintage spec pickups; graphite reinforced neck, and string through body construction.

The American made Fender Precision is the type of bass that you buy and keep for a lifetime. Get one and cherish it. I know I will.

Fender American Precision Bass [2003-2007]Published on 03/18/09 at 11:13
The Fender American Series Precision Bass is an American made bass guitar that has a single pick up and controls for both volume and tone over this pick up. It is a pretty standard bass in terms of characteristics, but since all the parts are made at top quality, this is one of the best bass guitars out there.

UTILIZATION

I'm not sure what the neck of the P-Bass is made out of, but it has a great feel to it and is extremely easy to play. It is fluid feeling and is easy to play all around the neck, including the very top notes. The bass is about average in weight and the shape is the standard P-Bass shape that we have all come to know and love. Getting a great sound from the P-Bass...…

It is fluid feeling and is easy to play all around the neck, including the very top notes. The bass is about average in weight and the shape is the standard P-Bass shape that we have all come to know and love. Getting a great sound from the P-Bass couldn't be easier if you are a good player - just plug it in and wail away!

SOUNDS

The Fender American Series Precision Bass is awesome for all types of music, but I usually use it mostly for rock and pop. However, it is suitable for just about any type of music you would like to use it for. I usually plug the P-Bas into a Fender Bassman amp and I have used this set up both for live use and in the recording studio, both with great success. Throwing a bit of overdrive into the chain is quite effective and cool, but I usually just use the P-Bass with a clean signal, as it suits my tastes best. Overall, the tone quality of the P-Bass is unique and full of life and brilliance.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using the Fender American Series P-Bass for about four years and it continues to be one of the best bass guitars that I have played. I love it because not only is it extremely easy to play, it has a top notch tone quality in terms of both fullness and punch. While a Fender American Series Jazz Bass is just as good of a bass guitar, both have their own unique tones and I would encourage those interested to try both out to see what will suit their needs best. The price of the P-Bass is priced right, but since it is a high end bass guitar, it isn't for the beginner, but rather for the player looking to the best bass guitar they can. If you are a bass player and have never tried a P-Bass, do so now!

Very good versatile bass

(This content has been automatically translated from French)
Low manufactured in Corona (California)
20-fret maple neck.
Ash-body
-1 Micro precision switchable series of parallel
-Through body bridge for better sustain
-2 Knobs (1 volume with push button switch, a tone)

UTILIZATION

Haaa the handle, so good handle which is not moving and very enjoyable to play.
Weight level, the bass is lighter than Jazzbass.
Good access to acute even though I spent my life not in the area ;-)
Level sound, easy ... low even with a passive high output level at the beginning I did not use the switch gradually I realized its worth.
Depending on the rooms and pieces I change my sound with this button ... of happiness.
the fact to engage the switch...…

the fact to engage the switch you find a sound that resembles some of the Jazzbass.

SOUNDS

I play mainly Blues-rock (ZZ Top, ACDC, Popa Chubby ...)
yes it is ideal for this type of music.
I play a combo TC Electronic BG500/210.

OVERALL OPINION

I have 2 years.
The tuning is not moving, the bridge is good and the handle is aging very well, for one very good price / quality ratio.
I took the personal touch of maple with this low ...
It is my first bass "serious" after Mexican Fender and other brands, so you can feel the difference when playing Sonmez and also the build quality and parts used.

(This content has been automatically translated from French)
This bass is made in United States in a corona california
It has 20 frets, it has a micro side american precision bass split coil position in mid
the bridge is an american throught body string or rope passes through the body for better sustain (the strings are Fender taperwound 045,110)
There are two potentiometers for volume and one tone over another there is a switch S1 on the volume knob that allows the circuit to pass the microphone of a parallel series
The profile of the handle is the handle c itself is in maple and rosewood or maple fingerboard (mine is maple). Fender has also incorporated two carbon rod al interior so that the handle does not move to a thumb

UTILIZATION

Once that is placed over the hand we see that the handle is soft and slides very well, some say that the handle of the jazz bass is better as a thinner you to judge me in any case I find it super stable (with a j jazz bass I have done the comparison) for me it is good to very good quality.
Access to the treble is fairly easy
This precision is quite low light (yes, c is the alder) form is quite Ergonomia the body is sanded on the top for easier contact with your chest, if c is still a big bass (not as the king low for example) but it does absolutely no gene
We obtain easily be the sound precision bass, but you can get a multitude of sounds. Exelle It sounds especially in the big microphone with high output level to be little change with the s1 (lower level) that you have to permetra sounds ranging from one edge to jazz bass (the good s1 is equivalent to say when the two of a micro jazz bass are connected).

SOUNDS

This bass is exactly what I sought as much style I like, some will say that c is the rock bass that you have to play the mediator I avec.Moi I would say that that s not true because forecment I play with fingers and also do the slap, ell it ideal.
I play with a bassman and 100W for the moment with little effect
J obtained with sounds from crystal to fat but still well defined through the maple fingerboard

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using the three me and the tuning did not moved since.
What I like about it is to c her beauty and her first sounds, I also love the historical side of this low
No I have not tried the other basses I've ordered directly
The value for money is very good
I do it again just to be with this choice of rosewood for the key (ba yes exactly the same two low n not have too much interest)
