Fender American Professional Precision Bass V - Rosewood Fingerboard, Olympic White

The Precision Bass earned its reputation by keeping the signal path direct, and the American Professional version extends that focused character to five strings with the refinement expected of Fender's flagship USA series. The Fender American Professional Precision Bass V combines an alder body with a 34" Medium C maple neck, rosewood fingerboard and V-Mod III split-coil Precision Bass V pickup, while a 1.875" bone nut and 5-saddle HiMass Pro bridge accommodate the wider format without adding complexity to the master volume and tone controls. For bassists who need deeper range for recording, touring and modern live arrangements, the American Professional Precision Bass V delivers five-string capability while preserving the decisive simplicity of a Precision Bass.

Five Strings Broaden the Precision Bass Foundation

A fifth string expands the physical platform in clear, functional ways: the nut widens to 1.875", the bridge moves to five saddles and Fender supplies a .045–.125 string set, while the 34" scale remains unchanged. The alder body and polyurethane finish keep the core construction familiar, so the added range comes from the string layout rather than a wholesale redesign. That makes the Precision Bass V a natural transition for players moving up from a standard four-string P Bass.

V-Mod III Split-Coil Pickup Keeps Controls Direct

A single V-Mod III split-coil Precision Bass V pickup feeds master volume and master tone, preserving the uncluttered control scheme that defines the platform. There is no second pickup to balance and no selector to navigate, keeping adjustments immediate during a set or session. ClassicGear Precision potentiometers refine the feel and taper of the controls, giving the familiar two-knob layout a more polished execution.

Medium C Neck Adds Refined Playing Comfort

The Medium C maple neck combines rolled fingerboard edges with Fender's Super-Natural satin urethane finish and a sculpted heel for a smoother, more finished feel across the full 34" scale. The rosewood fingerboard carries a 9.5" radius, 20 narrow tall frets and white dot inlays, while the 1.875" bone nut accommodates the wider five-string layout. These refinements help maintain a familiar playing experience while supporting the expanded range.

HiMass Pro Hardware Supports Flexible Setup Options

A 5-saddle HiMass Pro bridge gives every string its own adjustment point and supports either string-through-body or top-load installation. Lightweight vintage-style tuning keys with tapered shafts keep the headstock hardware efficient, while nickel/chrome appointments maintain the understated Fender aesthetic. Together, the bridge and tuners provide an adjustable foundation for the wider string set without introducing unnecessary setup complexity.

A Refined Five-String Precision Bass for Working Players

The American Professional Precision Bass V extends the established P Bass character into a five-string role with thoughtful refinements to the neck, electronics and hardware. Its V-Mod III split-coil pickup preserves the direct response of the traditional design, while the refined Medium C neck and HiMass Pro bridge give touring and recording players practical upgrades. A deluxe molded case is included for transport. Bring five-string reach and familiar P Bass control to your playing with the Fender American Professional Precision Bass V.
