Time-tested tonewood foundations

For the American Professional Classic Precision Bass, Fender elected for a performance-proven tonewood triumvirate: alder, maple, and rosewood. The alder body — as the bass’s sonic cornerstone — anchors your sound in a well-balanced profile, renowned for its incisive attack, enduring sustain, and upper midrange punch, giving you the power, transparency, and articulation your bass tones need. Smoldering warmth, spectrum-spanning heat, and clear note-separating brilliance arrive with the maple neck. Up top, the rosewood fretboard enshrines your sound in a crystalline veneer that’s teeming with depth and presence yet never muddying your mix.

Iconic coast-to-coast character

Foundational firepower abounds on the Fender American Professional Classic Precision Bass, and no effort was spared to ensure its suite of sonic circuitry could bring the bass’s latent potential to life. To power up your playing, this P Bass marks the debut of Fender’s Coastline ’60 Precision Bass split-coil. This pickup channels the sound of its namesake era and then turns up the heat, thanks to increased coil winding, delivering robust stage-proven tones with a soaring modern edge. What’s more, this P Bass comes with Fender’s Greasebucket tone circuit, allowing you to sculpt and shape sound and rein in cloying highs, all without sacrificing precision or clarity — your low end stays focused and preserved.

Built for every lick — Lollipops, included

Laying down low-end licks is a pastime for every bass, and this P Bass is primed for prismatic playability. Performance-tier hardware from across the eras starts with a little-known appointment, even among the more studious 6-string scholars — Lollipop tuners. For only three years (1965 to 1968), Fender’s Jazz (’65 to ’66) and Precision (’67 to ’68) basses enjoyed this eye-grabbing hardware, and the American Professional Classic basses brought ‘em back, with serious stability and style in tow. Add in the vintage-style 4-saddle bridge, satin-finished neck, and classic full-body contouring, and the Fender American Professional Classic Precision Bass is the optimal gateway to bringing historic, US-built Fender craftsmanship to your rig.
