The U.S.-made flagship of the Precision Bass lineup, as solidly built and powerful sounding as ever. The latest incarnation of the indestructible workhorse bass that started it all and revolutionized popular music, the left-handed American Standard Precision Bass delivers elegantly simple style, elemental build and feel, with pure Fender bass tone from subtle to seismic. If you could have only one bass guitar, this is it.
This American Standard instrument features a modern neck designed for comfort and performance, with a contemporary “C”-shaped profile and a smooth satin-finish back. The fingerboard features a modern 9.5” radius, with comfortably rolled edges for instantly “broken in” feel and medium jumbo frets.
American Standard bass guitars feature Fender High Mass Vintage (HMV) bridges that combine stylishly classic looks with superior modern intonation, sustain and adjustability for pro-level tone and performance. Versatile design accommodates player preference for top-load or through-body string attachment.
This instrument is equipped with a single powerful Fender Custom Shop ’60s split single-coil pickup for pure Precision Bass tone with any degree of muscle and finesse, from placid to pummeling.
This finish offers the superior look and durability of polyurethane, applied to a thinner undercoat that lets the instrument’s body wood flex, breathe and resonate more freely for a more unconstrained and natural-sounding voice.
To keep the neck straight and true with even greater reinforcement, American Standard basses feature graphite neck support rods in addition to the truss rod that distribute string tension more evenly and add mass that helps eliminate troublesome dead spots.
American Standard basses feature smooth-operating vintage-style tuners with thin, flat “paddle” keys and stamped with the classic stylized Fender “F”. Tapered posts help anchor bass strings in place neatly and efficiently.
