Overview

A Precision Bass with punchy lows and smooth playability.

The Fender American Professional Classic Precision Bass maple fingerboard is a masterclass in design, combining Fender's timeless craftsmanship with modern innovations for discerning bassists. Featuring an alder body with a gloss urethane finish, this Precision Bass delivers a warm, balanced resonance with clear low-end punch. The maple neck, paired with a synthetic bone nut and medium-jumbo frets, offers smooth playability across the 34" scale. A single Coastline '60 split-coil Precision Bass pickup delivers classic punch with warmth and articulation. The inclusion of the Greasebucket tone circuit allows for precise tonal control without muddying the low end, making this bass an essential tool for professional recording and live performance. Its combination of premium components and iconic design ensures a dynamic and expressive playing experience.

Alder Body With Gloss Urethane Finish for Balanced Tone

The alder body of this Fender bass provides a solid foundation for its full, resonant tone. Renowned for its balanced frequency response, alder delivers tight lows, punchy mids and a smooth top end, making it an ideal choice for bassists seeking clarity and warmth. The gloss urethane finish not only enhances the body's durability but also allows the wood to resonate freely, ensuring a dynamic and responsive sound. The classic Precision Bass body shape offers ergonomic comfort, making it suitable for extended playing sessions. It's a timeless design that exemplifies Fender's commitment to both aesthetics and functionality, ensuring superior tonal performance and visual appeal.

Maple Neck With Satin Urethane Finish for Smooth Playability

The maple neck on this instrument features a satin urethane finish that ensures a smooth, friction-free playing experience. Its comfortable profile is complemented by a 34" scale length, delivering the tension and string spacing bassists expect from a professional-grade instrument. The synthetic bone nut enhances tuning stability and intonation, while the medium-jumbo frets make it easy to navigate complex runs and chord voicings. With white dot inlays for clear fretboard visibility, this neck combines vintage-inspired aesthetics with modern playability. Whether you're performing intricate bass lines or laying down foundational grooves, the neck design ensures precision and reliability in every performance.

Coastline '60 Split-Coil Pickup for Vintage P Bass Tone

The American Professional Classic Precision Bass is equipped with a Coastline '60s split-coil Precision Bass pickup, delivering the unmistakable thump, punch and clarity that defined generations of rock, soul and funk. This vintage-inspired design captures the warm, full-bodied low end and articulate midrange growl that made the original P Bass a legend, while offering the refined balance and responsiveness modern players need. Whether you're anchoring a groove on stage or tracking in the studio, the Coastline '60s pickup provides rich harmonic detail and powerful output that cuts through any mix. It's the perfect fusion of heritage tone and contemporary performance—pure Precision Bass at its finest.

Vintage-Style Hardware for Tuning Stability and Durability

This Fender bass features a four-saddle vintage-style bridge with steel saddles, providing precise intonation and excellent sustain. The Fender lollipop tuners ensure stable tuning while adding a touch of timeless retro flair.
