Up for sale, a 1985 Fender Precision Bass Elite II in excellent condition and in perfect working order, complete with a hardshell case. This uncommon Elite II is from the final year of a limited production run that ran from mid-1983 to early '85; an upscale USA-made P Bass with active electronics, this bass boasts two split coil pickups that have an incredible amount of tonal range and a slender, fast-feeling neck profile.

Whether you seek more treble-focused growl or thick thump, the Elite II's intuitive control layout allows you to easily dial in the sound you need, with far more tonal variance typically offered by the standard Precision design. Weighing 9lbs 4oz, the instrument has plenty of fundamental punch and sustain, yielding a balanced, smooth natural acoustic tone. This Precision Bass Elite II has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar with 45-100 roundwound strings, easy-playing action, and accurate intonation.
