Updated for ultimate comfort and playability, the Fender Player II Precision Bass serves up a rosewood or maple modern-C shaped neck with a satin finish and rolled edges. Go retro with a classic three-color sunburst or black finish, or rock one of the new, vintage-inspired colors that have never before been on a production model P Bass. The Player II Precision Bass also features an alder body, Alnico V split single-coil pickup and 20 medium-jumbo frets.
“My dad is a bass player, and he told me, ‘You don’t pick your bass, your bass picks you,’ and here I am with a P Bass,” says bassist (Olivia Rodrigo GUTS world tour), songwriter and former Guitar Center team member Moa Munoz. “To me, the quintessential P Bass sound cuts through really well in a band setting. It’s bright, punchy and warm. Many players leave the volume and tone knobs at 10-and, trust me, I’d leave mine at 11 if I could-but I’ll roll off the tone for more muted sounds. I also play with a pick to get some grit for rock riffs, my fingers for a rounder tone and my thumb when I want a real ‘plonk-y’ sound.
“I don’t think you need to spend thousands of dollars on a bass if you have a good guitar tech. For example, in the time I’ve had to beat up this Player II Precision a little, I don’t know if I could tell the difference between it and the ’60s P Bass we use at the studio.”

I’m happy with the rolled fretboard edges and rosewood. But since I just bought a Player I on clearance, I’ll wait.

I just bought one of these the other day and I love it. It's a blue one with a maple fingerboard. I went in most excited to try out one of the ones with a rosewood fingerboard, but after trying out the four different examples they had in stock I just liked the feel of the neck on the one that I chose the best. Moa's dad is right. "You don't pick your bass. The bass picks you."

Can't beat a Fender with a maple fretboard!

Sounds good, looks good. A solid p bass.

I play guitar but I’ve dabbled with bass. I’ve tried several, but the P-bass is the one that spoke to me. Glad I waited for these player 2 to buy one.

It's awesome that she mentions Steve Harris, but he doesn't just play the P- Bass he Gallops it!

@@jasondorsey7110 They really do. I actually have the same exact bass as in the video above except mine is a Player l. The only difference is the maple is lighter in color on mine. Although I like the darker maple on the new Players, the light maple with a black and white bass looks great!

@roofkorean6948 19 күн бұрын

The color choices for all of the new Player ll guitars and basses are kind of lame in my opinion, with a few exceptions. If they plan on keeping the Player ll line around for a while, they should definitely release a few more options.

@NoMoreMrNice 16 күн бұрын

Birch green with the maple fretboard looks great! But it would be nice if you could choose between maple or rosewood on any body color.

@@glenny5081 I had a bandmate from years ago who got that exact guitar and played it exclusively. Dark Red Fender Stratocaster, black pickgaurd and rosewood fretboard. I remember when he showed me I was like, "That's...kind of ugly." He was like "What?!" I personally just don't like the color combo. Replace the black pickguard with a white one, or better yet, get a maple fretboard instead of rosewood, and it would look fine. But something about the red, black, with the rosewood combo seems like such a bland choice to me, like the guitar had no personality. Everyone's different. I'm sure some people think the exact opposite of me. But I remember thinking to myself, "He had so many color options and thats the one he went with? Weird. I don't get it."

yep, it's a p-bass.

Wait she said she was going strictly direct but she showed that she was plugged into the Helix board so I guess she is actually getting the actual sound from the Helix, not an actual direct from the Fender!!!!
