General

Would you like the powerful, punchy sound of a P-Bass with the range of a five-string? Then Fender got news for you with this black American Standard Precision Bass V. It is a modern five-string version of the indestructible workhorse from the fifties. This bass guitar has been equipped with a low B string that, in combination with the fierce alnico 5 pickup, will make the earth tremble. Its playability and user-friendliness have also been improved by using modern technology. This is the version with a maple neck, providing just a little more sparkle than a rosewood version would. The American Standard Precision Bass V is an extremely durable, American-made instrument, so you may expect first-class quality.

The American Standard Precision Bass V: fully up-to-date

Fender have made the American Standard Precision Bass V fully suited for this day and age. Thanks to modern features, this 5-string bass now plays and sounds better than ever before. Two graphite Posiflex support rods in the neck provide for optimal strength and stability, regardless of weather conditions or changes in temperature. Fender's High Mass Vintage bridge has the same classic looks as before but has gained considerable weight to provide more tone and longer sustain. The new Hipshot tuners have also retained their authentic appearance but weigh 30% less than their predecessors for a better-balanced instrument. Twenty medium jumbo frets and a 9.5-inch fretboard radius provide for optimal comfort while playing.

Alnico V split single-coil: authentic P-Bass sound

Fender's P-Bass is a favourite of bass players in many music genres because of its powerful, and protrusive sound. From Motown to reggae and from blues to hard rock, its clear, thrusting sound has become virtually indispensable in modern music. This legendary sound is produced by a just one single pickup. The split single-coil consists of two separate single-coil pickups that, together, function as a single humbucker, producing a proper punch and powerful basses without the typical 50Hz hum of a single-coil pickup. The passive electronics consist of a volume control and a tone control to filter out high frequencies.
