Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
fender’s right-handed american ultra ii precision bass combines an avalanche-finished select alder body with sculpted contours, a quartersawn maple modern d neck, and a 10–14 inch compound-radius maple fingerboard. ultra ii noiseless vintage pickups at the middle and bridge feed a pan control and s-1 selectable active/passive system. the 3-band eq, passive tone control, and two midrange frequency choices give you onboard adjustment for live performances or recording work. a deluxe molded case is listed.
Strong match
Who this is for
- live or recording bass parts needing active or passive operation and onboard equalization.

- transporting the bass in its listed deluxe molded case.
Consider the trade-offs
