{"product_id":"fender-american-professional-ii-precision-bass-dark-night","title":"Fender American Professional II Precision Bass | Dark Night","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Fender American Professional II Precision Bass in Dark Night refines one of the most influential and recognizable bass designs ever made without changing what made it essential. Dark Night blends deep blue into black, creating a subtle burst that feels understated but still has depth when it catches the light. It is a more refined, moody version of a traditional sunburst, paired with a rosewood board, white dot inlays, and classic chrome hardware. The aesthetic stays true to the Precision Bass identity, but with enough of a modern edge to make it stand out without losing its heritage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn hand, this bass feels familiar but noticeably improved. The 1963 “C” neck shape sits right in that sweet spot, comfortable and easy to navigate without feeling too slim or chunky. The satin finish is smooth and fast, while the rolled edges and sculpted neck heel make longer sessions feel effortless. The 5-bolt asymmetrical joint adds stability while improving access higher up the neck, and the lightweight vintage-style tuners help keep the balance right. It has that classic P Bass feel with refinements so it feels broken in from the start.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTonally, this is exactly what you want from a great P Bass, just with a bit more range and clarity. The V-Mod II split single-coil delivers thick, punchy lows with strong midrange presence that sits perfectly in a mix. It has the famous growl when you dig in, but also cleans up nicely for smoother, more controlled playing. The updated electronics and bridge design keep the top end more articulate so notes stay defined even when things get heavier. Simple controls keep it straightforward, but the range is all there in your hands. This is a Precision Bass that keeps the core sound intact while making it modernized, more comfortable, and equally at home in the studio, on stage, or in your bedroom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Dark Night\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gloss Urethane\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Precision Bass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Design\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-Saddle HiMass Vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: String-Through-Body or Top-Loaded\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControls\u003c\/strong\u003e: Master Volume, Master Tone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sculpted Neck Heel, Posiflex Graphite Neck Rods\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Inlays\u003c\/strong\u003e: Dots - White\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFret Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e: Narrow Tall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFretboard Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.5”\/241mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardware Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nickel\/Chrome\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstrument Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: Full\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Body Joint\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-Bolt Asymmetrical\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Body Joint-Fret\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15th\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Urethane: Super-Natural Satin Back\/Gloss Headstock Face\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Maple\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1963 “C”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Frets\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Strings\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625”\/41.3mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrientation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePickup\u003c\/strong\u003e: Middle - V-Mod II Split Single-Coil Precision Bass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePickup Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: P\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePickups - Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 34”\/863.6mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuning Machines\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fender Lightweight Vintage Style w\/ Tapered Shafts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote\u003c\/strong\u003e: This guitar is in excellent condition with some cosmetic wear on the back of the body from regular use.
