Fender invented the Electric Bass in 1951 in response to requests from musicians for a louder, easier-to-handle bass. This new instrument was named the Precision Bass. Unlike its predecessor -- the acoustic stand-up bass, the P-Bass¬ had frets, which allowed bassists to play with precision. Needless to say, a "new playing sensation" was born and the sound of popular music changed forever. Category: 4-String Electric Bass Guitars Brand: Fender |
