A few years back fender "improved" the AVRI lines - the '75ri Jazz, '57P and '62P became '76J, '58P and '63P goodness knows why or what imporvements/cost savings they were making - I preferred the older ones.

What I don't want is The pedal/bass whatever with drums behind and a full band mix. Unless I'm super interested in the gear (ie about to buy) I'm mostly browsing on something with speaker that aren't great for bass.

global pandemic. Brexit. Everyone working From home and the rise in home delivery, production shutting down of new vans for a large part of last year, the dealerships shutting for a while and the uncertainty meaning there is pent up demand ...
Guessing you will want a white one and a 5th wheel that you want to have but are hardly going to use?
Working in the automotive sector van prices are mental at the moment... not enough supply, crazy demand....
