The Fender American Ultra Precision Bass MN Arctic Pearl elevates the classic Fender bass design to the ultimate Level in playability and tonal variety without denying its traditional roots. The revised contours and "tapered neck heel" of the alder body, together with the "Modern D" profile of the maple neck and the compound radius of the maple fingerboard, guarantee unhindered playability, while Ultra Noiseless pickups and an active 3-band tone control provide the right sound for almost any genre. Last but not least, the Fender American Ultra Precision Bass features a Fender HiMass bridge and precise Fender Lightweight vintage tuners.
The Fender American Ultra Precision Bass MN Arctic Pearl convinces as a modern interpretation of Leo Fender's ingenious design with excellent playing characteristics and an extensive sound palette.
Thanks to the rounded tapered heel on the alder body, the "Modern D" maple neck, which is secured bombproof with five screws, can be played up to the highest registers without any problems.
American Ultra Precision Bass with high playing comfort
With a revised contour language for the first time in 60 years, the American Ultra Precision Bass's alder body hugs the body comfortably, providing a robust playing position both on the strap and on the thigh. At the same time, the "tapered neck heel" of the five-ply maple neck allows unobstructed access to the high registers of the maple fingerboard. Thanks to the combination of the satin neck back, the slim "Modern D" profile and the compound radius (254 mm to 356 mm) that increases from 10" to 14", the Fender American Ultra P-Bass also offers extremely agile playability.
Fender Ultra Noiseless Vintage pickups in the classic PJ setup and the 18 volt powered 3-band tone control promise versatile, hum-free sounds with typical Preci charm.
PJ pickup setup and active 3-band EQ for versatile bass sounds.
At the bass amp the American Ultra Precision Bass convinces with a wide sound spectrum, which always shows the typical Preci character. The Fender Ultra Noiseless Vintage Precision Bass split-coil pickup installed in middle position provides the typical P-Bass sound with rich growl and punch in the low mids, while at the bridge an Ultra Noiseless Vintage Jazz Bass single-coil delivers a wiry-transparent tone without annoying background noise. To further customize the sound, an active 3-band equalizer is also on board, which thanks to 18 volts of operating voltage guarantees enormous headroom for always transparent and dynamic sound characteristics. A mini-switch can also be used to activate the passive mode for traditional sound patterns, with a separate treble control on the rearmost double potentiometer.
Extra-lightweight Fender tuners keep the American Ultra Precision Bass securely in the correct tuning.
High-quality hardware equipment
Last but not least, the Fender American Ultra Precision Bass MN Arctic Pearl is equipped with high-quality Hardware that combines traditional styles with modern functionality. The bridge here is the proven Fender HiMass bridge, whose solid construction skillfully supports the even sound and sustain unfolding of the four-string. At the same time, four tailpieces guarantee optimal adjustment of intonation and string action. Behind the bone nut, four Fender Lightweight Vintage bass tuners on the headstock also ensure an exact and stable Tuning and a significantly reduced neck dive.
