General
The classic look of an American Precision Bass guitar with modern touches where tone and comfort are concerned - with the American Elite Precision Bass by Fender, all these things are within your grasp. Combined with an active 18V preamp, the PJ pickup configuration allows for a very wide palette. Furthermore, you can switch between active and passive modes using a two-way switch, while the pan knob adjusts the balance between the Elite Precision split-coil in the middle position, and the 4th Generation Noiseless single-coil at the bridge. What's more, besides the traditional volume controls, the American Elite Precision Bass Ash MN even features a built-in 3-band equalizer. Finally, it also comes with a case, a guitar strap and a cable.
American Elite Precision Bass Ash MN: compound radius and ash body
On the comfortably lightweight and richly resonant ash P-style body, you'll find a solid Fender 4-saddle HiMass Vintage bridge, which allows for longer sustain and exquisite intonation. The same focus on quality is also evident in the American Elite's compound neck, with a profile that changes from a modern C to a D, and a fretboard with a 9.5 - 14" radius. Moreover, the maple neck features a satin finish, and combined with the maple fretboard, it adds some punch and comfort to the Precision Bass's already excellent playing experience.
American Elite series guitars and bass guitars
The American Elite series features several different versions of the famous Telecaster, Stratocaster, Precision Bass, Jazz Bass and Dimension Bass models. Every single one of these carefully crafted guitars and bass guitars was made in the US, guaranteeing top Fender quality. For the Elite series, Fender combined their tried and true traditional designs with modern features such as a compound-radius fretboard and neck profile.
