Fender Standard Precision Bass - Black, Laurel Fingerboard

Fender’s Standard P Bass Returns! The Fender Standard Precision Bass is back, and how sweet it is! This performance-driven and affordable P Bass is designed for a new generation of players. It features an updated ceramic split-coil pickup, delivering the iconic P Bass tone that has influenced the music world since the 1950s. As the first mass-production electric bass guitar, the Precision has driven the bass lines of some of the biggest hit records ever made. The ’60s were a typically prolific decade, with the instrument in the capable hands of session bassists like LA-based Wrecking Crew stalwart Carol Kaye, who lent her Precision chops to countless iconic recordings such as the Beach Boys’ “California Girls” and “Good Vibrations.” Then there was Motown bass legend James Jamerson, whose ’62 Precision (dubbed “the Funk Machine”) delivered the infectious bounce that buoyed a slew of Motown hits like the Temptations’ “My Girl”
