I have a Player P like that with maple fingerboard. I just ordered a green Player P Plus. I’m not usually an active bass fan either. Your comparison confirms that I will probably like it. If they didn’t put a passive switch on it though, I wouldn’t consider it.
I feel the Fender Plus is a little "metallic", but I believe it is due to the difference in the wood on the fingerboard as well. I loved the fender plus look, those new colors are beautiful.
Great comparison. I have a Player P bass with maple fingerboard. I just ordered a jade P plus like that one. Your comparison confirms this was a good move.
I notice that as well. However I also notice some sustain difference.. but I always ask the question how long do need a note to sustain for. As bassists we're generally not playing things that are held out too long. (lol, I'll prob get a ton of comments as to why I'm wrong). Thanks for watching - Anthony
Outstanding that Anthony from Empire Music is doing well. The Fender's Player Plus Series Precision and Jazz Bass is Wonderful. The Price is very Reasonable not to Expensive just Comfortable.
@@michaelbonanno7476 I only discovered the left handed model last week on Fender’s website. I think Fender really needs to accommodate us lefties more.
I Agree. However, I still feel this basses really excel in active. The passive option is just for an emergency situation and great to have. Thanks for watching - Anthony
@@EmpireMusicPgh yeah, they're meant to be played active, but the buzzing on my bass when i crank up the treble is just insane... i turned the treble on my amp down to 3, so its pretty ok now, if i use both pickups or when im just messing around with the single coil by itself...
This guy has the truest bass sounds on the net. They always sound great
Player plus(passive) 3:24
Player 3:48

Thumb's up passive 🎸🎸

How are you liking the player plus vs the player one?
How do the necks compare? Like in feel, are they the same size?
Awesome presentation! You're making it hard to decide with these last few vids. Thanks Anthony!
Great demo. The player plus sound more snappy and sparkly than passive player P without loose the Fender P vibe.
cause it has maple fretboard which is more snappy
In my opinion,the highmass-bridge,do not so much more sustain,but it makes the feel on the strings,by fingestyle playin,tighter!🤟

I’ll buy in Fender’s next release granting they add a passive tone!
Thanks a lot for the video, again really helpfull, but being the annoying bass player I am can you do a (American Ultra vs. Player Plus) video?
I second this!

Hello! Do you know if the Player Plus neck fits a "normal" Fender body? Thanks!
Did you record through an amp, or direct into the interface?? Sounds like there's a cabinet involved here... :)
I didn't know that Coldplay's drummer could play bass in this amazing way.
Player plus active vs player Jaguar?
Excellent Anthony well showcased. Nice playing 👍
Player Plus was my favorite.
Looks a comfortable neck too rolled edges 👍👍
Noise?
High up on my wish list.
I wish they made a left handed version of the Precision Player Plus!
They do now
@@markfarrell580 thanks for letting me know! I hope they sound good!

@@markfarrell580 Absolutely! Though I’m right handed and play lefty (even more rare lol)
@@michaelbonanno7476 now that I’ve never heard of lol lefties playing right I get that
if the player plus basses had a passive tone control like the american ultra or other brands have, they would be perfect..

Hello from mexico! can you do a review to squier 2021 jazz bass 5 strings
The player kills the plus in passive
This was a while ago... but would tend to agree w/ you! Thanks for watching - Anthony
