Fender American Performer Precision Bass Review

[@panthergraf9630]

I've snatched a AM Performer Precision a few months ago and ist a blast. Two weeks ago I went to my local guitar shop to look after another Precision for Flats. Played three different Players, one American Professional I, one American Professional II, a Vintera, a Vintage 1978 (almost broke my back, friggin heavy) and two Custom Shop Precisions. Plus some Squier Precisions, Jaguars, Jazz Basses and for the fun of it short scale Mustangs and Gretsch Junior Jets. Oh, and there also was this AM Performer Precision in OW - it blew all others out of the water. But I've saved my money and will look for a used one in LPB. tl;dr: Great Bass!

[@RumblinMan]

Awesome!!! Yeah, LPB is an amazing color.

[@jerrodknisley973]

I love a p bass. I tell people it's no frills design make you play. I'm looking at a player series in that beautiful butter cream. Great video as always. God bless man

[@RumblinMan]

Jerrod Knisley God bless you too! Yeah man, the Player Series P Bass absolutely rocks. I definitely recommend it. Had the chance to review it and was impressed.

[@MegaDieseldriver]

Jerrod Knisley I have the buttercream j bass and I absolutely love it , it begs to be played daily .

[@gooble69]

After years and years of noodling around on cheap instruments I finally bit the bullet and bought one of these. I'm no pro, but it's a beast! So much better than anything I've played before, well worth the money!

[@RumblinMan]

Awesome!! Congratulations!!

[@wadomannen]

This is bass's answer to the Swiss Army knife. It can be used for everything in music. An incredible bass.

[@angbernardo]

I’m a guitar player that’s been playing more bass recently and I joined a cover band as a bass player. I was looking for the right bass to compliment the MIM Fretless Player I bought a few months ago, which is also white but with a white pick guard. It was a toss up between this Performer or the Player Plus, which I liked because of the price point, but I didn’t want active controls. I ended buying this exact model after watching your review. There were many I watched but your review kind of solidified my decision. It really is a killer bass and is gonna see the stage quit a bit. It was the right choice for me without breaking the bank. And I gotta admit, I love that it’s called the ‘Performer.’ Cheers.

[@RumblinMan]

I’m so glad my review was helpful. Congratulations on a couple really sweet basses, man!

That's the bass I would get should I finally decide to graduate from the Player Series Precision one that Fender currently has out. I've always dug that particular pickup configuration, like having the best of both worlds without needing to buy two separate basses. If Fender can produce a left-handed/3-tone Sunburst/maple fretboard version of this model, then they've pretty much reeled me in as far as I'm concerned. Top-notch review, by the way! ;-)

I just bought one too , ( in sunburst / rosewood ), but I have to point out. You said new for 2019....mine has a 2018 serial number. I would also mention, don't remove the strings and pick guard to adjust the truss rod...just loosen the strings and remove the neck...that's how it was meant to be done. Much faster and easier.

[@RumblinMan]

Truth Filter For KZbin Fender suggests removing the strings which is why I said that. Whereas the models were first available in December of 2018, this series premiered at NAMM in 2019.

Kenneth Taylor thank you very much for that feedback. It’s an encouragement! I’m glad I could help.

[@josephsofia330]

OK so I bought one last week in 3 tone sunburst and rosewood fingerboard. It plays and sounds great and has a wide variety if classic tones that will more than meet my needs at shows and studio recordings. Unfortunately that's where it ends. Here are the quality control issues: 1. Wood across the front of the body is 3 piece instead of the 2 piece in all the photos I have seen 2. The match of the wood joints is terrible. Extremely obvious where the joints are terrible. So obvious where the joints are. 3. Looks like there is a magic marker line under the clear coat on the front of the bass. This one should have been rejected and sent to the line for a paint finish. 4. The Fender logo on the headstock is off and part of the A on the word Bass is missing 5. There is a tiny divit on the back of the neck 6. There is a small divit in the rosewood on the 6th fret. Bringing it back today and will probably take a shot on ordering another one. May go safe on a paint finish this time. Went with this one over the Professional II because of the added J pickup and better input jack. The Pro II does have a better bridge, a more classic feel and look and comes with a case which I really do note care about since I have plenty of them.

[@ScottyKMusic]

I'd respectfully disagree about that truss rod being "easier" to adjust than a peghead entry. Nothing easier about it. Having to remove everything to adjust can be a headache vs direct access.

[@christocr]

If you get the right style hex wrench, you don't have to pull the strings, pickguard, or any of that.

[@pau1rose]

Just got to that part of the video and had to pause it to look for this comment. Doesn't make any sense that it would be easier to adjust.

[@joaoguimaraes31]

Hey Rumblin Man, I am getting a lot of value from your videos! Your reviews are really honest and useful! Are you planning to do a review of the Professional Series? I am interested in buying an American P-Bass, I am still deciding to buy either a Professional or Performer Series, my indecision is regarded to the usefulness of the J-Pickup as I really enjoy the minimalist design of a classical P-Bass. Would you have any opinion on that? Thanks!! Huge fan from Brazil!!

[@RumblinMan]

Hey bro!!! I am so glad to hear that you are getting value from the content. Thanks SO MUCH for your encouragement!! Means the world. Man, I would absolutely love to review the American Pro bass but haven't had the opportunity yet. I haven't been in touch with anyone at Fender lately. Sean Hurley had great things to say about it in one video I saw, though. Honestly, the American Pro bass is probably a much better bass all-around. But if you've gotta have a PJ, this is a good way to go. Just gotta decide a) what is affordable for you and b) whether you can live without the J bridge pickup. God bless my friend!

Im replacing them with New EMG X Noiseless pick ups. Many Luthiers agree the EMG Noiseless Pick Ups are much better than Fenders Noiseless pick ups. And Im ditching the crappy Bridge for a Babicz. Level the frets and recrown. Then it should play better and sound great!

Well, i proudly own a Sandberg P. I used to play a Player Series P, but the fretwork on the Mexican instruments is like it's on all ,,cheap" instruments: bad! You cannot have a low string action without fret buzz. Since i'm used to play my Sandberg which built quality is boutique like, i have a hard time with American made instruments because they very often lack quality control and precision. Even on the 2,000$ Fenders i saw some imperfections which for me is an absolutely impudence. I'm a P- guy but want some extra spice and clarity. So now i'm thinking about to get a Performer P.

Sure the American series play slightly nicer, but the price tag is so not worth it. I can mod a Squire PJ and get it to the point where for me it surpasses any American model. Also, the placement of the trussrod access for these models are just stupid. Having to remove the pickguard every time to make neck adjustments will eventually strip the holes for the pickguard screws.

[@DikiBolz]

@@RumblinMan The 1200$ price was a surprise. Can you specify the advantages comparing to Squier? The sound, for sure, is not.

[@RumblinMan]

www.Marko right. I feel ya. Sure, for one thing, the Fender is a much better-built bass than any of the Squier PJ basses (the only current Squier PJ’s being the Affinity and the Vintage Modified). I’ve used the Squier Vintage Modified PJ, and I don’t like it. I tended to think that the pickups on that bass sounded even worse than these, and that the build quality on the Squier was below my expectations. That particular model is also prone to electric issues. The American Performer is extremely well-built with excellent woods and hardware; they also made it easy to make action adjustments. Where they messed up, though, is that, like we’re talking about, the pickups just don’t sound good. That means if you drop $1200 on the bass, you’re also gonna drop $200 on some good pickups, and that’s a total of $1400 dropped... for that kind of cash, it would be MUCH better to go with a Lakland Skyline 44-64 Custom PJ, which is superior to both the Fender and the Squier in terms of feel and sound. If you’re looking for a slightly more budget-friendly PJ bass, however, I recommend the Sire Marcus Miller P7 4-string.

[@DikiBolz]

@@RumblinMan Lakland sounds incredible! Excellent suggestion! It is always great to read these things from people like you, who have tried many different instruments that may be unavailable to everybody. Me personally, I am glued to Yamaha BB. They have something special. Sire, for sure, makes great and cheap instruments for what they offer but, for me, their tone is a little bit generic sounding. Also, thank you for those comparisons!
