General

If you want pure punch, power and definition, then you probably need a Fender Mustang Bass. This PJ-configured bass is fitted with a C-profile neck with a 30-inch scale length, a 9.5-inch fretboard radius and a satin-gloss finish. Since the neck is a little shorter than average, the frets are closer together and the string tension is lower making it a more pleasurable play for those without gigantic hands. This also makes it a relatively lightweight instrument which, if you're playing every day, will literally save your back.

The Mustang Bass PJ: Tried, Trusted and Incredibly Flexible

The ash body of this Mustang bass is fitted with a maple neck to give a full and solid foundation sound for the PJ pickup configuration. This incredibly flexible setup involves a mash-up between a Precision split-coil mounted at the middle position and a Jazz pickup at the bridge. Isolate or combine the pickups using the 3-way switch to get the very best of two classic basses in one, then customise the sound with the tone and volume pots.

Fender Mustang Bass PJ Firemist Gold PF Electric Bass Guitar
Wrote the following about Fender Mustang Bass PJ Firemist Gold PF Electric Bass Guitar
Ondanks dat ik een groot fan ben van short scales en Fender (en dat short scales voor beginners goeie instapmodellen zijn) ben ik geen fan van dit model. Alles is namelijk Fender kwaliteit, alleen beide pickups zitten zo geplaatst dat met een plectrum/pick spelen niet gaat zonder tegen de pickups aan te botsen. Ook staat de Precision pickups zo schuin dat je duim er op rusten er voor kan zorgen dat je uitglijd.


Daarnaast heeft deze gitaar (maar dat hebben veel shortscales) de neiging om te neckdiven. Nogmaals, in principe een geweldige basgitaar, maar de pickup positie en de schuine Precision pickups zijn killing in dit geval.
