Overview

Born in Corona, California, the American Performer Precision Bass delivers the exceptional tone and feel you expect from an authentic Fender--along with player-oriented features that make it even more inspiring to play.

The American Performer Precision Bass includes a Yosemite split-coil Precision Bass middle pickup and a growling Yosemite single-coil Jazz Bass bridge pickup, designed for rich, expressive tones. With flat-staggered pole pieces to increase output and a shellac coating that lets the coils breathe while controlling feedback, Yosemite pickups produce dynamic sounds ideal for any musical situation. The American Performer Precision Bass also features Greasebucket tone circuitry that lets you shape your highs without adding bass, preserving your sound. The "Modern C"-shaped neck sports a 9.5"-radius fingerboard that's comfortable for almost any playing style, along with 20 medium-jumbo frets, allowing you to easily express yourself musically.

I have been playing a Yamaha trbx 304,which was my main bass,but after getting this fender I’m switching it up, this p bass plays like butter with little to no set up the neck and the body contours make this bass feel like home
