bass guitar recommendation

Unread post by shelly0624 »

My dad is looking for a Fender bass guitar. Can anyone recommend a good one up to a $1,500 price tag. Looking for a lot of bang for the buck, if possible.

There are quite a few Fender bass guitars within that price range Shelly. Maybe take a look at the Precision and Precision Plus series.

No chance of tempting him over to Yamaha? 😂

Ahh but that is for you. There is no denying that Yamaha bass guitars are among the best but if people like and prefer their Fender that is the right choice for them 👍
