Inspired by the Precision Bass released in 1951, the American Pro Precision Bass V features a brand new V-Mod split-coil Precision Bass pickup that uses a carefully selected blend of alnico magnet types for balanced tone. The "golden" '63 P Bass neck profile is designed for comfort while the Posiflex™ graphite support rods add stability and prevent warping. Redesigned tuning machines use a fluted shaft for increased sustain and enhanced tuning stability.
