The Fender Precision Bass has inspired some of the most legendary basses of all time! The '50s Precision Bass features a maple neck, alder body and a split single-coil Precision Bass pickup. Other features include a gold anodized pickguard and vintage hardware.
In 1951 Leo Fender introduced a revolutionary new invention -- the Precision Bass guitar. It was played like a guitar and had frets so that it could be played with "precision," and it could be amplified, thus liberating bassists from unwieldy and increasingly difficult-to-hear acoustic basses.
The Fender Precision Bass was one of two historic instruments that laid the foundation for a new kind of group and a revolution in popular music -- what we know today as the modern rock combo. As opposed to the "big bands" of the era, electric Fender instruments made it possible for smaller groups of musicians to get together and be heard.
