I know, but they've still never felt terribly precise to me!

Perhaps that is the 60 year old design speaking!

Exactly. At the time, the Precision was a massive move from Double Bass. I lke the whole vibe and tone of a Double Bass (although Ive never really tried playing) but bringing the bass into a guitar format made it much more versatile, easier to transport, and pretty damn cool. So yes, frets = more precise, therefore Precision. Stick a new set of SS strings on a Precision, whack the tone up full, and its VERY precise-sounding!

Way Huge name their pedals using double entendres: Swollen Pickle, Pork Loin, Fat Sandwich etc.

Yeah, right.

Yamaha use lousy names all the time too. AES620, SGS2000 etc. At least they're easy to forget.
