Named after the legendary bassist who held down the low end for iconic bands such as Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver, the Fender Duff McKagan Precision Bass is a rock 'n' roll beast. A reissue of the '80s-era Jazz Bass Special, this bass guitar deftly combines the body of a Precision Bass with a Jazz Bass neck, resulting in a distinctive, sleek, and full-bodied sound.

The Pearl White finish, gloss-black neck, and headstock bring back the classic look and vibe of the '80s rock era. The bass houses both P and J pickups, with the Seymour Duncan Jazz Bass pickup in the bridge position and a vintage-style P Bass pickup in the middle position. Both pickups work in harmony to create deep bass tones with a distinctive rock 'n' roll edge.

The Precision Bass pickup delivers the driving, hard-hitting bass lines that are synonymous with rock and metal, while the Seymour Duncan J Bass pickup provides a rich midrange and a growl that cuts through the mix. The Duff McKagan Precision Bass also features a TBX treble/bass cut circuit, allowing you to dial in your desired sound with precision and ease.
