Fender Precision Bass
Why does a Fender Precision bass buzz when the tone is turned all the way up?
It goes down when I am touching the strings but not all the way.
I need it mostly for harmonics because they come through much stronger that way.
If it is a Fender, as opposed to a Squire, then all the problem can be is a slight problem with earthing, the connection of the pickup to the controls, or maybe not even that. Try a new jack lead, try through a different amp, and if you are using a standard pickup configuration, it could just be a matter of tightening the screws on the pickup.
Squire is slightly trickier, because the quality of the parts used is not good. For this you may have to take your bass into a shop, or back where you bought it. Fender or Squire, the chances are high that its a very slight fault that youve overlooked, it shouldnt cost you much, if anything at all, and the solution should be quick and easy.
Precision Basses are excellent, tried and tested for the last 55 years. But, being the first massproduced electric Bass Guitar on the market, its popularity sometimes gets the better of it, even to this day. Many innovations in eletronics and materials used have been made since its introduction as a product, but the design has remained the same, unfortunately, so have some of its faults.
Hope this helps at least a little, good luck.

Fender American Deluxe Precision Bass $1499.99 Fender American Deluxe Precision Bass The Fender American Deluxe Precision Bass is built with modern features that bassists demand, with a newly designed preamp circuit that delivers deeply exhilarating active and passive tones. The Fender P-Bass’ powerful-yet-quiet N3 Noiseless pickups present more clean headroom, extended EQ range, and even more sublime tonal options, thanks to the active/passive switch and passive tone control. The American Deluxe Precision bass is crafted with a select alder body-a hard wood that provides clear tone and lasting sustain. A graphite-reinforced maple neck with modern C-shape, Posiflex graphite neck support rods, 5-bolt neck plate, and contoured heel make the Deluxe Precision bass extremely easy to play. The Fender High-Mass Vintage bass bridge offers compressed and focused bass tone, with more mid range punch. The American Deluxe Precision bass retains the Fender articulation and sparkle, combined with vintage-style saddles to maintain a classic vibe. A combination of a steel plate with brass saddles produce the best possible Fender Bass sound. Fender N3 Noiseless pickups Fender’s N3 Noiseless pickups are among the best-sounding pickups ever affixed to a Stratocaster or a Telecaster guitar, providing unmistakable vintage sound without unwanted noise. In short, N3 Noiseless pickups deliver landmark vintage Fender tone and response without the hum that can plague single-coil pickups. Using an improved stacked-coil design, N3 Noiseless pickups are specially tailored for each Stratocaster and Telecaster pickup position-neck, middle, and bridge. The insulated metal core of each pickup position type differs in thickness and composition for enhanced tone, and Fender has fine-tuned the size, shape, and wire gauge of the coils to balance the magnetic responsiveness essential to great tone. N3 Noiseless pickups represent a welcome return to the warmth and clarity of alnico magnets. Again, the type of alnico magnets used is tailored to pickup position-Alnico 5 for the power and warmth of the Stratocaster N3 bridge pickup and the signature snap and spank of both Telecaster pickups; Alnico 2 for the sweetness and sparkle of the Stratocaster N3 middle pickup; Alnico 3 for the fullness of the Stratocaster N3 neck pickup without undue magnetic string pull. The active 3-band EQ, along with a split single-coil pickup and bridge humbucker provides a wide range of dynamic tones, so you can individualize and pinpoint your ultimate Fender bass sound. The American Deluxe Prescision Bass is perfect for players who want a top-of-the-line modern Precision Bass. Other features include Stealth "A" string retainer, tinted neck, rolled fingerboard edges, highly detailed nut and fretwork, genuine bone nut, flat-head screws on battery compartment (for easy changes with a coin or pick), and pearloid dot inlays.

Fender American Vintage 57 Precision Bass $1449.99 Fender American Vintage 57 Precision Bass Fender invented the Electric Bass in 1951 in response to requests from musicians for a louder, easier-to-handle bass. This new instrument was named the Precision Bass. Unlike its predecessor the acoustic stand-up bass, the P-Bass had frets, which allowed bassists to play with “precision.” Needless to say, a “new playing sensation” was born and the sound of popular music changed forever. The American Vintage ’57 and ’62 Precision Basses pay tribute to the originals with accurate detailing from their respective vintages. In the half-century since its introduction in 1951, the Precision Bass guitar has dramatically influenced the way we play and hear music and has affected almost every musical genre. Our American Vintage 57 Precision Bass pays tribute to this landmark instrument with accurate details-including the electronics and hardware-and features including an alder or ash body, split single-coil pickups with raised pole pieces for the A string, vintage tuning machines and a nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Available in White Blonde (801, ash)* and Two-color Sunburst (803). *Note: there is a $100.00 upcharge for the White Blonde finish.
