The Fender Player II Precision Bass MN Rallye Orange is arguably the oldest classic bass in the Player II series and offers absolutely everything that has made the legendary Preci one of the most popular bass guitars for over seventy years: ergonomically designed body contours, wonderfully growling split-coil sounds and, of course, the incomparable playing feel of the P-Bass. The Player II Series Precision Bass remains true to all these principles and, what’s more, introduces refreshing new colour variations that make this 4-string bass an absolute visual highlight on stage, in the rehearsal room or in the living room.
Elm body and modern ‘C’-shaped maple neck
The body of the Fender Player II Precision Bass MN Rallye Orange follows the tried-and-tested design and, thanks to its contoured armrest and ergonomic‘Tummy Cut’ on the back, proves to be remarkably comfortable to play. Meanwhile, the classic mapleneck, with its slim Modern-C neck profile and 20 medium-jumbo frets, delivers that time-honoured P-Bass feel for the fretting hand. The playing feel of the Fender Player II Precision Bass is further optimised by a modern 9.5" fingerboard radius and rounded fingerboard edges.
Fender Player Series Alnico V Split-Coil
Naturally, the Fender Player II Precision Bass MN Rallye Orange, as a classically styled ‘Preci’, features a single split-coil pickup, which lends the 4-string an astonishingly broad and versatile tonal range. The Fender Player Series Alnico V split-coil, fitted in the centre position, offers defined treble, prominent midrange and bass, and naturally produces that characteristic ‘growl’ which so many bassists particularly appreciate. The wiring is also classic in design, comprising a volume control and a treble control.
