Updated for ultimate comfort and playability, the Fender Player II Precision Bass serves up a rosewood or maple modern-C shaped neck with a satin finish and rolled edges. Go retro with a classic three-color sunburst or black finish, or rock one of the new, vintage-inspired colors that have never before been on a production model P Bass. The Player II Precision Bass also features an alder body, Alnico V split single-coil pickup and 20 medium-jumbo frets.
“My dad is a bass player, and he told me, ‘You don’t pick your bass, your bass picks you,’ and here I am with a P Bass,” says bassist (Olivia Rodrigo GUTS world tour), songwriter and former Guitar Center team member Moa Munoz. “To me, the quintessential P Bass sound cuts through really well in a band setting. It’s bright, punchy and warm. Many players leave the volume and tone knobs at 10—and, trust me, I’d leave mine at 11 if I could—but I’ll roll off the tone for more muted sounds. I also play with a pick to get some grit for rock riffs, my fingers for a rounder tone and my thumb when I want a real ‘plonk-y’ sound.
“I don’t think you need to spend thousands of dollars on a bass if you have a good guitar tech. For example, in the time I’ve had to beat up this Player II Precision a little, I don’t know if I could tell the difference between it and the ’60s P Bass we use at the studio.”

what are your thoughts on the Player II P-Bass? Let us know in the comments! ????
Moa, you are wonderful!!! ♥♥♥
If shes a pro im a alot better than i thought. ????????????
Not interested in listening to some chick
I want thee pj
If you play bass with a pick, stay away from me.
Love the guitar
You can spend five grand on a boutique bass but it won’t sound like a P bass
I got the same one except player series but 1 not 2. Put flats on it and holy cow. BTW it’s very light at 8 pounds ????
My main bass is a Player I with Nordstrand pickups and TI flats on it, it's just an amazing instrument!
I love Moa.
There were so many good bass players in the early 2010s coming up in LA. I remember going to a local university and seeing some of these kids perform, insanely good.
Many of them just disappeared. Sad.
Instead we have this…….
Looks and sounds amazing but, I can't stand that plastic truss rod plug on the neck. Looks horrible. Haven't you considered making a wooden one or just getting rid of it?
It's nice that it just has 1 traditional split pick‐up…..I'm really sick of P/J style Precision basses.
Too bad they didn't use a real bassist to demo the bass lol????
The tried and true classic Fender P Bass it is timeless
5:52 how the electric bass was originally meant to be played
Hard to beat 2 knobs and a pickup, the p bass is sweet.
Dear Fender, I tried the P II Bass yesterday. It's much better than the player series. The new appointments were definitely an improvement. The rolled frets and neck finish were most notable. Much better Q.C. than the last batch you put out. Far more worth the value as well.
Would love to hear a demo with flatwounds so we can hear how it does with James Jamerson/Pino Palladino tone
Yesterday I bought a Fender Player II Precision Bass and can't wait to get it.
I already have the Fender Player II Jazz Bass with flatwounds… just awesome. I just fell in love with the Fender sound.
Do you think they will also sell the guitar necks individually?
What riff is it? 0:00
Need more left handed options!!
did the Player 1 have rolled edges?
there is nothing quite like that picked p bass sound
I just bought one of these the other day and I love it. It's a blue one with a maple fingerboard. I went in most excited to try out one of the ones with a rosewood fingerboard, but after trying out the four different examples they had in stock I just liked the feel of the neck on the one that I chose the best. Moa's dad is right. "You don't pick your bass. The bass picks you."

solid p-ass ……I mean Bass ImI
It's awesome that she mentions Steve Harris, but he doesn't just play the P- Bass he Gallops it!
❤
Biggest change (available rose wood board instead of pau ferro) isn't even mentioned? Kinda strange.
I play guitar but I’ve dabbled with bass. I’ve tried several, but the P-bass is the one that spoke to me. Glad I waited for these player 2 to buy one.
The color choices for all of the new Player ll guitars and basses are kind of lame in my opinion, with a few exceptions. If they plan on keeping the Player ll line around for a while, they should definitely release a few more options.
Wait she said she was going strictly direct but she showed that she was plugged into the Helix board so I guess she is actually getting the actual sound from the Helix, not an actual direct from the Fender!!!!
Leo Fender got his design perfect from the get go. No point changing it now.
Sounds good, looks good. A solid p bass.
What’s new about it?
yep, it's a p-bass.
