Highlights

PLAYER SERIES PICKUPS

Designed for authentic Fender tone—with a bit of an edge—our Player Series pickups keep a foot in the past while looking to the future.

PJ PICKUP CONFIGURATION

Bassists will appreciate the remarkable tonal versatility of the PJ pickup configuration, with a thunderous split single-coil Precision Bass middle pickup and growling Jazz Bass bridge pickup.

30"-SCALE NECK WITH 9.5” FINGERBOARD RADIUS

This classic short scale makes it easier to comfortably reach the lower frets while maintaining Fender's punchy bass sound. The 9.5”-radius fingerboard offers enough arcto provide a natural fret-hand feel.

4-SADDLE BRIDGE

Combining form and function perfectly, the 4-saddle bridge features modern slotted saddles for enhanced tuning stability and punchy attack.

“F”-STAMPED NECK PLATE

Each Player Precision Bass includes an “F”-stamped neck plate, leaving no doubt as to the instrument’s pedigree.

OPEN-GEAR TUNING MACHINES

A classic design element from the earliest days of the electric bass, the open-gear tuning machines offer rock-solid tuning stability.
