I love the sound of the noiseless pickups that is on this American Ultra model, it not only sounds nice but is an all around beautiful bass.
Im not going to act like your name isnt Peter griffin.
"Hey Lois, they got rid of the brick, Lois!"
"Oh peeetah, you always complained about the brick.."
"Yeah, but is it even a Fender now?"
Picked one of these up for Christmas. Absolutely the best bass I’ve played. Can’t put it down!
Does it hum like mine? I don’t like it. Plus the neck pickups had some scuffs. Came from fender. Last, my cheap bass had more bass/low frequency than the ultra.

What does that even mean ?
@@almas7123 You are a chinese bass manufacturer's bot sent here to sway people away from Fenders. I mean come on man even your use name is A I Complaint. Artificial Intelligence complaint. get real botface
@@Incubus635
Lol you are hilarious! But here is the truth . At this time fender is sending me a replacement. And like it or not my TMB 100 has more bottom than the ultra. Hopefully my replacement will sound better.
I’ve seen many passive tone knobs with active pre amps. Glad fender finally came to the party with that!👏🏽🔥
Why am I torturing myself with these videos?
I want one so bad
@@deltavaudio6323 a video never shows the real sound you will have :) it s just a video

@@phenixreturns no its not. i got one and its exactly sounds like that.
I also got the same. And it sounds like this one. I got the last in store with not fresh strings. And I don't want another strings. I record directly in sound interface without any effects or plugins for amp emulating and it sits in the mix
I am in love with this bass
This guy was working off the same script as the Strat and Tele demos. Right down to lines like "It's not too small and it's not too big. It feels just right in your hand and you feel right at home." It makes you wonder what the player ACTUALLY thought about the guitar. I understand marketing, but this is a little weird. Oh and I really want this bass. Did I mention that? I'm going to go look at the Jazzmaster video now.
I think you'll find that Jazzmaster fits just right in your hand.
You'll feel right at home
it did seem very scripted. still sounds good though
Yeah sounds robotic
well this is posted by Fender - so yes - it is an ad!
I have the ultra Jazz and precision bass's. They are both beautiful, play and sound amazing! My J bass is in Texas Tea black and my P bass is White, they complement each other very nicely!
If your to choose one, which one would you get? Than you!!
@@rolandmaniago4035
🤔 wow good question lol.
If going by sound then possibly the P bass, since it has the pickup in the back you can get more of a "jazz" bass sound out of it so it might be a little more diverse.
Both play great and sound great! I love the look of the maple fretboards and especially love the block inlays and brass pick guard on the J bass.
Good luck and let me know which one you decided on 👍
Nice clean sounding and good looking bass
I'm just surprised the bridge doesn't offer an option for body-thru
Even 500$ basses have this option, but for Fender is maybe very cost effective to drill a few holes in the body 😅
I have the 2013 version (which was labelled "American DeLuxe") and this offered both body-thru and top loading. So, Fender keep changing the name, reducing the spec and increasing the price! (Just like all "Big Name" American brands, which are just trading on their name!)
@@savanaviolenta its a great bass, dont buy it if you dont want but dont try to make people feel bad about something you cant afford :)
Go play one... all the fender haters.... then you go to record and the engineer hands you a p bass and tells you too put that 7k fodera back where it came from.
@@mikelabelle1145 This is totally a true scenario,, i've had this happen. Its also an extraordinarily lazy engineer.
Bassilicious indeed. Love the Finish. Quite similar to the 60th Anniversary Jazz Bass I've been waiting for months to receive. Any idea when those will be produced, Pete? 🖤
SO MUCH INNOVATION
please please please bring back a 5 string version of this bass.
No 5 just on a jazz bass
5 strings sucks
Same here! A 5 strings pb deluxe!
Get a Sandberg.
@@Meypelnek I second Sandberg. Especially with how this ULTRA Precision Bass sounds, it actually sounds VERY similar to Sandberg basses. Just a tad warmer sound.
It would be nice to see a humbucker option like on the old American Deluxe series. P bass in the back stingray in the front. Just my opinion!🎸
Some one else sees Rick Grimes (TWD) playing bass? >D Awesome PBass Fender, bravo!
Some great audio of that snare drum work.
Nice bass Fender.
His name is Pete Griffin. Totally +1 for that.
I’ll wait for Ultra Deluxe Elite model.
in Classic Modern Vintage finish
Joseph Brown With modern noiseless vintage modified pickups
With a bolted neck-thru neck, and double cutaway single horns
I want that guitar.
Thanks for a month or even more practice material. ^=^
Крутой инструмент, хочу такой!
Anyone know what kind of pick was used in the last part of the demo? It sounded good and didn't have all that pick scratching sound that normally comes with picking on a bass.
Might have been a felt pick. I know what you mean.
Does it have a passive option for the bridge/jazz pickups? Also, does this bass sound exactly like the jazz bass when panning to the bridge pickup (and zeroing the precision split pickups)?
Yes, he just said so
Groovy!! I can’t wait to take lessons
I wish we could get the maple fretboard with the other colors.
FENDER PLEASE MAKE MORE LEFT HANDED INSTRUMENTS
Just put the string in reverse orden
Just learn with your right hand
Is there a tab for this bassline
Can you roll off the tone on the P-bass puck up while in passive mode?
Yes. It is fender’s response to many requests. It is like having a P bass and J Bass in one bass.
Why did you change de string-through bridge to this one?? And why no truss rod wheel anymore?
It’s sad they got rid of the spoke wheel for truss rod adjustments!!
To me that´s a mystery. I have a Music Man Sting Ray 5 since it was introduced and that weel is fantastic, so when i saw it on the Fender American Elite Precision Bass i bought it. It´s very odd that they don´t have it on a new release. The lack of this wheel alone is enough for me to not buy this bass.
Please Fender, consider to re-think this and add the spoke wheel for truss rod adjustments on this series.
I'll take that Bassman 800 thanks.
Cool! But only difference with elite series i could rocognize was pick up..
And bridge?
just a replacement from elite. new neck profile and back to jumbo frets.
I have an Elite and I love the neck on it and how it flattens out, bridge on the elite has tons of sustain so not sure why they needed to add the huge BA copy. It looks like they also moved the truss rod adjustment as well, love the wheel on mine... that's a better design, why take it away?!?
There is no string through option either... notice how they don't show that part of the bass in the videos?
YOU'LL NEVER PLAY A FENDER THE SAME WAY AGAIN
A 5-String version would be a plus.
Will there be a 5 string Precision available ?
yes, they are, go to guitarcenter.com they have a 5 string model available for like $200 more
@@ABCTraveler-ol5oj I was looking for the PJ setup, I know there’s a 5 string jazz bass but I was looking for one with this pickup setup
ABC Traveler Not on Fender’s website. You’re talking about the jazz bass. This is a Precision. Do you not know your basses?! Your comment got me excited and was just plain wrong!
Play The Trooper!
Does it have a string through option?
nope
Important Question: I just purchased one of these (2020 Fender Ultra Precision) and the J-Bass pickup has a much, much lower output than the P-Bass pickup (its drastic) in both passive AND active. I purchased this bass used but it’s only 2 months old. Anyone have any ideas? The bass feels phenomenal! But my Sire V7 jazz bass has more output than this one (both passive and active).
Where is Mel Brown?
Yes Please
I’ve got the J and just ordered the P. Both in white . They feel fantastic and sound great . I’m just not sure why this Video has English sub titles , I’m pretty sure someone with that sort of hearing challenge would not be in the market for a new bass?
Ever heard of Mozart?
@@iDigress77times Beethoven, but your point stands.
@@franzie8801 hahaha you right.
this bass look so comfortable to play, but i can't afford it :(
You must be using flatwound strings. You should use both types of strings to really show us how it really sounds. The bridge pickup still (to me) sounds weak.
Still a great looking bass👍🏻
Hey I picked up this exact bass and notice some issues with the bridge pickup in passive mode. When I roll off the passive tone knob the volume of the jazz/bridge pickup drops right off (less than half of the volume). With the tone turned up it's honky as and pretty much not usable.
Is there potentially something wrong? I don't hear significant volume drops in the demo and there is no editing so it's not behaving the same as the demo in this video. Any help would be great. I adjusted pickup heights and it didn't alleviate the issue. Is it possible that battery can affect the pickup even in passive mode? To me it seems unlikely but I dont know.
One day.... one day....
I just got one
Performer vs Pro vs Ultra - what would choose you?
Does it come in a 5 string?
There is not a 5-string option for Precision Bass, but check out our demo for the Jazz Bass V here: th-cam.com/video/OFOPnpswEGE/w-d-xo.html
I have got ultra. This bass is absolutely gem.as new comes with frets fully lacquered. It is your job to remove it . Nova days 🥴
Does it come in 5-string? No right? Why not?
Watch the andertons review.
I watched this while high, I was tripping out thought I was stuck in an endless loop.
Passive tone control! That is a proper step. Now slam an Emerson PIO glass ended tone cap in there and you might just have something. And maybe string thru?? Ok I'm living in dream world here but it is ok to contemplate. I do like the "D" neck, should give her some punch, kind of like my old Peavey with the baseball bat profile. Peace.
No body-thru bridge at this price. It must cost them a lot to roll the edges.
I feel like this is a step back, the neck/truss rod, the same bridge you get on a MIM, and for heaven’s sake, when are we going to get an active PJ 5-string?
You should check out the Sire P7 5 string. It not American made but I've heard nothing but praise for the quality of build and active electronics.
holy shit
I didn’t know Rick Grimes could play the bass
good except the price
Thank goodness somebody finally made a noiseless P-Bass pickup - am I right? (waits for hi fives - bass players just shake their heads)
I have a p bass special with pj set up and the jazz pickup is noiseless and sounds great
Rex Brown got Fender endorsement???
What’s considered the “front” pickup vs the “back”?
Like, aren’t all pickups on the front?
Neck = front
Bridge = back
But I agree with you
Technically the P-Bass pickup is in a middle position.
LOL
Replace that tortoiseshell pickguard on the white one with a black pickguard and it'd be perfect.
Pissed that they don’t have a lefty version
Fender sound its like a Godzilla;
Eating the other little basses;
Put a humbucker in the rear position already!
Didn't know Peter Griffin could play bass
Why was the name changed from Elite to Ultra? Out of a sudden Elite is no more and forgotten - yet it was the greatest thing. Just call it 2020 Elite
great sounding bass great build as well, but IMO it already sounds so far from the original passive P-bass... I'd maybe get a passive P with a hot pickup instead
Fender never makes any of their high end or unique bass's in left handed.
left hand class A basses only custom shop
I wonder if it sounded Distorted? I wanna do some f-ing metal with that
You want to change pickups first. The Noiseless series are too sterile sounding for metal, IMHO. I replaced the pickups on my Fender American Elite Precision Bass because of that plus that the original pickups have very low output. A set of DiMarzio model P+J solved both those issues.
Better
hey beter
Sounds and looks great but by all sites I've seen it on they are TOO HEAVY. I like em under 9 pounds or under
its not heavy, i got one, its amazing
Spanish subtitles pliss
rid that buzz in bass guitar
It's called a P bass but it has PJ style pickups?
Too bad they don't make a 5-string version.
Damn would LOVE to get this bass in the plasma red burst but the battery is the deal breaker, also why does an ELECTRIC bass need a battery?
I hope you're joking here, but here goes: The on board preamp requires power to run it. An ELECTRIC bass does not run on electricity, but it requires amplification via an electrically powered source.
You can also still ise it without batteries. This bass is passive/active
Beautiful sounds awesome but I can't justify spending 1500 - 2k on what is a hobby for me 😢
No problem this bass is made for Proffesional workin Musicians, and Studio Musicians they need this.
Its still cheaper than a Rickenbacker 4003 and that bass only has one Sound.
I can't hear it
Why am I poor?!?! FML
you can buy one on payment plan
Is it just me or does the tone sound distorted… in a bad way?
Yeah the bridge pickup is bad. I think its setup to high so you get the distorted tone, don't know why the didn't lower it. But maybe it's cause he was plucking closer to the bridge also
Yeah, it is definitely an issue specifically when he's playing with the bridge pickup. I was wondering how much of it was the pickup and how much of it was the amp. It almost sounds like a blown speaker. Either way… not a good demo. I feel like these "Ultra" models are a big step backwards from the American Elite they're replacing. On top of the shoddy workmanship of the Player line and the overpriced Vintera line they also introduced this year, this all is really making me question Fender's direction.
Room 34 Creative Services - I agree with you on the state of events at Fender... they seem to be running off the cliff Gibson stylé... There new Ultra=$$ Basses are an old polished turd wrapped in a pearl blanket... I have a 2012 Select precision and a 2019 limited shell pink Jazz w/all rosewood neck that matches most Fenders custom shop slabs . Also Surprising - I just got ahold of the new Duff McKagan MIM Bass- the build quality and sound are exceptional. I guess it all depends on what can be tolerated. And Yes, my hypocrisy runs deep... That said. They seem to run hot and cold year to year, trying to stay on top of the appeal factor. I speculate they need to stay out of bankruptcy by juuuust going outside the Fender box for innovation. Gotta keep’m happy.
What IS needed at Fender is a think tank of lucid, forward thinking designers, luthiers and a creative CEO with an eye for true innovation. Dingwall, Ernie Ball and evening Ibanez are on the right track. Parker Guitars did it. Light years ahead of everyone...Sadly, they just didn’t have what Fender has as far as leverage. A modern day Leo Fender will emerge some at some point. Technology and the changing scenery in music demands of it.
Room 34 Creative Services no...I think it's just you 😉
Can I just have one,since I've been trying to save for one for months and keeping having financial issues come up Please!? What if I say please with cherries on top,!?😊😊my mom did always say ask and you shall receive😏😏😏😏
The “features “, active, EQ. Act/Pass switch, noiseless pups are identical to the US Deluxe I got in 2013. Now it’s a Ultra and more expensive? No offense but not much innovation there. Nice but no.
Sorry but I don't hear the "precision sound" :(
why?
@@phenixreturns I just can't hear it. This bass sounds too "neutral" IMO
@@LeonardoParisi1 i like warm tones : Police-Sting, Lynott
the problem is they annonce new noiseless pickups for their guitars and i know that their last version was very good
but now, we don't really know what is all about
Ultra Noiseless Vintage Precision Bass means nothing to me
I agree. My American Standard P sounds way more authentic!
@@martinheath5947 i would like the elite PJ but the price is high and i don't play everyday with a bass guitar
Sounds compressed and sort of "choked". The former model was fine.
it doesnt, i got one, sounds amazing not choked.
Still worse than Sire Marcus Miller V10.
Considering your sirev10 review is NOT a reference of anything, it's hard or even impossible to understand such comparison
I highly doubt that - and I play Sires and Fenders. Different. And in terms of quality and build - these Ultras are unmatched it seems.
loss of truss rod wheel, loss of sale. need to cater to more lefties too
