P/N 053493 specifications

Fender P/N 053493, more commonly known as the Fender Player Precision Bass, is an instrument that embodies the perfect blend of vintage inspiration and modern innovation. Launched as part of Fender's Player series, this bass guitar draws deeply from the iconic designs of the past while incorporating contemporary features that enhance playability and performance.

One of the most notable aspects of the Fender Player Precision Bass is its classic Precision Bass body shape, which is ergonomically contoured for comfortable playability. Made from alder, the body is lightweight yet resonant, providing a well-balanced tone that is characteristic of the Precision Bass lineage. The finish options are varied, ranging from traditional sunburst to modern solid colors, appealing to a wide range of visual tastes.

At the heart of the instrument is a Player Series Split Single-Coil pickup, which captures the quintessential Precision Bass sound: punchy, articulate, and powerful. This pickup configuration delivers a rich low-end presence, making it ideal for a variety of genres, including rock, funk, and jazz. The addition of a volume and tone control allows players to dial in their sound, giving them the versatility needed for performance situations.

The maple neck is another standout feature, featuring a modern "C" shape that provides a comfortable grip and facilitates fast playing. The 20 medium-jumbo frets make navigating the fretboard a breeze, while the 9.5-inch radius ensures a smooth feel for chords and solos alike. This neck is accompanied by a synthetic bone nut, which enhances sustain and contributes to the overall tone quality of the instrument.

In terms of hardware, the Fender P/N 053493 is equipped with a 4-saddle, high-mass bridge that improves note definition and intonation. The lightweight tuning machines provide stability and accurate tuning, making the bass reliable on stage and in the studio.

Overall, the Fender P/N 053493 Player Precision Bass offers a perfect combination of classic aesthetics and modern functionality. Its robust build, exceptional tone, and comfortable playability make it an ideal choice for both professional musicians and aspiring bass players alike, ensuring it remains a staple in the world of electric bass guitars. With its timeless appeal and advanced features, the Player Precision Bass stands as a testament to Fender's commitment to quality and innovation in musical instruments.
