Fender American Professional II Precision Bass V - 3-color Sunburst with Rosewood Fingerboard Reviews
Leo Fender nailed the essence of a great instrument when he launched his Precision Bass in 1951. Today, the Fender American Professional II Precision Bass V draws on over six decades of innovation, evolution, and inspiration to exceed the requirements of today’s working bassists; and adds the extended range of a tight, responsive low B string — a must-have for theatrical pit work and many other contemporary musical contexts. The ’63 C-profile neck feels just right, with its smooth, rolled fingerboard edges, “Super-Natural” satin finish, and newly sculpted neck heel that gives you effortless access to the upper register. Fender’s new V-Mod II Precision Bass V split-coil pickup serves up classic P Bass punch and growl, with more articulation than ever before. A genuine bone nut and string-through-body or top-load 5-saddle HiMass Vintage bridge deliver solidity and sustain for authoritative tone, while lightweight vintage-style tuners with tapered shafts provide outstanding tuning stability and fast, hassle-free string changes. Rocking premium appointments, flawless playability, optimized electronics, and classic visuals, the Fender American Professional II Precision Bass V offers you a new standard of comfort, tone, and performance.

After much deliberation...thumbs up
Purchased this bass from Sweetwater about a month ago. I was looking for a simple, plain Jane 5 string. I've always loved a P bass (have a 4-string) so...I thought I would give this one a try. I have been pleasantly surprised with the tone, playability, and the P bass feel. I'm not crazy about the string choice but I will restring soon with some half rounds and it will be a keeper for sure. If you are looking for a passive 5-string, you should give this one a try. No bells and whistles but plenty of Fender P bass tine.
