Fender Deluxe Active Precision Bass Special Navy Blue Metallic 2014
Fender Deluxe Active Precision, navy blue, made in Mexico 2014 This is a cool thing: like a P, but with extra teeth. It's got the classic P body shape and aesthetic, but with a slim Jazz Bass style neck, an added Noiseless J-style single coil bridge pickup and an active pre-amp with a 3-band EQ. The tone is thick and warm, but you can add as much extra oomph down low or snap and bite up top as you see fit. The navy finish is so dark it's almost black, which paired with the snazzy gold guard looks super classy. If you're after a super practical P-plus thumper, this rules.
