Description

The Fender AM Perf Precision Bass is a modern marvel that pays homage to the iconic instrument that set the standard in the world of electric bass guitars. Crafted in Corona, California, this bass offers the unbeatable combination of classic aesthetics and contemporary playability. Its Yosemite P/J pickup configuration provides a versatile palette of tones, from the deep, punchy sound of a P Bass split single-coil to the growling mids of a J Bass single-coil. This makes it a perfect fit for any musical style, whether you're laying down tracks in the studio or performing live on stage.

The bass is constructed with a contoured alder body and features a smooth, satin-finished, modern C-shaped maple neck, ensuring comfort and ease of play across its 20 jumbo frets. The inclusion of the Greasebucket tone circuit allows you to dial back the highs without losing any of the essential low-end presence, giving you precise control over your sound. This thoughtful design is complemented by vintage-style tuners and a 4-saddle vintage-style bridge, providing stable tuning and intonation.

With its impeccable fit and finish, the Fender AM Perf Precision Bass is a reliable workhorse that inspires creativity and delivers exceptional performance for both seasoned bassists and aspiring players.

Fender American Performer Precision Review - Premier Guitar

premierguitar.com

Fender's American Performer Precision adds modern flair to a classic silhouette without losing its essence. The standout feature is its incredibly comfortable neck, blending P and J styles for an ergonomic feel. The tonal versatility, thanks to Yosemite pickups, allows for a range of sounds, appealing to various musical styles. However, purists may find the sound slightly strays from traditional P bass tones, which could be a dealbreaker for some. This bass shines in playability and modern design, making it a strong contender for both gigs and casual jamming. If you're looking for a P bass with a twist, this model delivers in spades, though it might not satisfy those seeking the original flavor.

guitar.com

Fender's American Performer Precision Bass dazzles with its stunning finishes and versatile PJ pickup configuration, delivering a rich array of tones suitable for various styles. The sleek, satin-finished neck enhances playability, making long sessions a breeze. However, at a price point of £1,149, some might find it a touch steep. While its build quality and sonic range are commendable, it's essential to weigh if the investment aligns with your playing needs. Overall, this bass is a strong contender for those seeking style and substance in their sound.

Fender American Performer Precision Bass and Jazz Bass review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

Fender's American Performer Precision and Jazz Bass offer classic aesthetics and familiar tones, but they come with setup quirks that may frustrate players. While the Precision provides a robust sound with its added pickup, and the Jazz excels in brightness, both models suffer from control limitations that restrict tonal versatility. Additionally, the action may require adjustment out of the box. Overall, these basses deliver solid performance and vintage appeal but demand a bit of fine-tuning to reach their full potential.
