- Hi, everyone.
Pete Griffin here.
And I'm super excited to introduce you
to the Fender Player Plus Basses.
In this series, we have the Player Plus Active P Bass,
which I have here.
The Active Jazz and the Active Jazz V.
This whole series is a great entry point
into the Fender world and is actually
the most advanced entry-level series,
Fender has ever produced.
They're built for players looking for affordable,
high performance instruments with upgrades
that help you elevate your playing,
as well as your tone.
Let's take a look at the three basses in this series,
starting with the Active P Bass.
The first thing you'll notice is that this bass
has a PJ setup with a Player Plus Split Coil
Precision Pickup in the neck and a Player Plus
Noiseless Jazz bass pickup in the bridge.
A three band active EQ allows you to shape your tone and
the mini switch toggles between active or passive mode.
Let's check out the total differences between active and
passive.

And now let's see what the EQ can do.

The neck on all three models is fast and super smooth.
Thanks to the satin finish.
They have comfortable rolled edges on a 12 inch radius
fingerboard and a modern c back shape.
And finally,
the high mass bridge provides sustained resonance and
perfect intonation.

Alright. We've switched over to the Active Jazz Bass.
This bass features Humphrey Player Plus Noiseless jazz bass
pickups and all of the same controls that we talked about
with the active P bass like the 3-band EQ and the mini
switch to go from active to passive.
Let's hear a little bit more.

And now finally we have the Active Jazz Bass V,
which has all the same great features of the
Player Plus Jazz Bass, with the addition
of a low B string.
Extending the range of the instrument for
complex cording or some massive low-end passages.
Let's check it out.

And there you have the Fender Player Plus series.
Between the feel and tone of the basses and
the amazing color choices these are really great options,
whether you're looking for your first Fender
or just wanting to add a cool new bass
to your collection.
Whichever you choose, you won't be disappointed.
