Enhance your tone

The Fender Designed Wide-Range Bass Humbucking pickups are an excellent choice for any bassist looking to upgrade their sound. These electronics have a unique design that delivers warm, smooth tones with plenty of clarity and definition. Thanks to their humbucking design, unwanted noise and interference is reduced, providing a clean and clear sound both on stage and in the studio. Additionally, these pickups offer a high output, so they're perfect for players who want to push their amps a little harder and achieve a more aggressive tone.

In addition to the Wide-Range pickups, the Paranormal also features a master volume, master tone, and 3-way pickup switching controls. These provide a lot of flexibility and allow for an abundance of tonal options. The master volume control allows you to adjust the overall level of your bass, whilst the tone control can help you fine-tune your sound, from bright and biting to warm and woody. And with the 3-way pickup switching, you can choose between different configurations, so you can find the perfect tone for any playing situation. These pickups are an excellent choice for any bass player looking to expand their tonal options.

Sculpted for the ultimate performance

The poplar body used on this unique bass offers numerous benefits to musicians looking for a high-quality instrument. Its lightweight nature makes it easy to handle and ideal for musicians who play for extended periods. This reduces shoulder fatigue and allows for long gigs or recording sessions without discomfort. Its tonal qualities are equally as perfect. Poplar offers warm and resonant sounds that complement the bass's low-end frequencies. This sound provides much needed depth and character to the overall tone.

Each and every detail is meticulously crafted for the ultimate performance. Its maple C profile provides a comfortable grip for easy movement, whilst its smooth laurel fingerboard promotes precise and smooth string movement, offering greater control over your playing. What's more, the 9.5" radius allows for a flatter string action, ensuring that tuning adjustments remain minimal. On top of the fingerboard sit twenty-one narrow tall frets, which makes executing both basic and intricate finger movements easy and precise, offering greater flexibility and creativity within your playing.

Distinctive Fender style

Fender's offset shape design has been a distinct characteristic for many of guitars for decades, and it continues to be an attractive feature for musicians today. This shape provides comfortable playability, as it is easier to hold and play during both seated and standing performances. Additionally, the offset design allows for effortless access to the highest frets, making it an excellent choice for musicians that engage in soloing and playing elaborate riffs. But alongside all of its playing benefits, the offset also adds to the iconic aesthetic, providing appeal for musicians and collectors alike.
