Fender Player II Precision Bass - Hialeah Yellow  

The Player II Series

Fender developed the Player series specifically for beginning musicians and musicians with a relatively low budget. The Fender Player guitars and basses are made in Mexico and measure up to Fender’s American-made guitars quite well. The instruments are also very versatile and are even suited for recording and gigs. The Player guitars are thus more affordable versions of the popular Fender models. Consequently, they also feel and sound like a Fender guitar. However, the Player models are relatively standard, Fender did not add any unique modifications or special additions to the guitar. All models have Alnico pickups and are available in different colours. The Player II models contain sturdier bridges so they’re more stable than with previous models, the necks now have rolled edges so they’re more comfortable, and the guitars all have ClassicGear tuners for increased tuning stability. Furthermore, now that rosewood is back on the market some of the guitars have a rosewood fretboard.

The Player II Precision Bass

The Fender Player II Precision bass is an amazing bass guitar for a great price. The Precision Bass contains all the improvements of the Player II series. Furthermore, the bass has two Player Series Alnico 5 Split Single-Coil Precision Bass pickups which will provide the bass with a deep and punchy tone. The Split-Coil configuration makes sure that the bass is very versatile. Fender realised that one whole single-coil pickup would lead to a lot of extra noise and interference. With the Split-Coil configuration the pickup is split in two pieces of which one is put in a reverse coil so that together they create a closed of circuit. Consequently, you’ll be able to produce a beautiful single-coil sound without any extra noise or interference. Moreover, Fender used great materials to assemble the guitar. For example, the bass has an alder body which is very lightweight and produces great sustain. The guitar also has a maple neck and fretboard. This is a great combination that produces a comfortable experience.
