dave_bass5 Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Although its not been listed or released by Squier, it seems there "might" be a new colour model coming out. No one really knows whats going on but there is plenty of speculation. Hopefully if this is true they might also update the CV 60's P colour as well.

Soloshchenko Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Yeah, love that. In fact I would say the Lake Placid Blue is the only thing putting me off these. It's not that I don't like LPB, it's just I already have the 60s Classic Vibe one in this colour and while I like the colour and the bass I'm not a mad Man City fan, I don't want two! Quote
bh2 Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Yes... saw that over at TalkBass... should have been that colour in the first place, would look even nicer with a white or pearl guard, but the black is teh sex. Nice. Quote
skankdelvar Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Close examination of the image reveals a Squier logo beneath the strings. If they do release this, then it's just going to fly out the door. Sign me up. Quote

bh2 Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Yes... I like the neck tint, always thought the LPB version was a bit too pale on the wood side. Prefer a slab body for this one but hey... Quote
hillbilly deluxe Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Hmmmm,wonder if the Tele bass will get that colour. Quote
Machines Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Fantastic, the colour of the original Squier puts me off but this is awesome. Quote
OzMike Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 I must be stupid or too slow, because all I see is the 'standard' LPB item at that link.... Quote
Stacker Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Why the non-original bridge, though? Don't get that. Quote
OzMike Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 [quote name='hillbilly deluxe' post='1176856' date='Mar 26 2011, 09:46 AM']Here it is.[/quote] Thanks! Wasn't the idea with the CV models not to be time / model-accurate, but to just (seriously) 'have that vibe'? I agree that bridge style detracts somewhat from that concept, but maybe it helps keep the price low. Quote
Raslee Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Great quality basses these, i had the LPB but sold it on to make funds for something else - would definitely be tempted for another. Quote
Truckstop Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Get a bridge cover for it? I'd get one if I didnt already have a Sting sig.! Truckstop Quote

phatkat Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Hate to rain on everyones parade but the text of that add states that its a LPB so I suspect thats a mockup! Quote

[/quote] I think its obvious that the text isn'tisnt talking about this specificific bass so you could be right, but there has been a lot of talk about this on TB and apparently Musicians friend might also have put this pictureprematurelyerly as they have done it before. Time will tell. Quote
Delberthot Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 Oh my I would have one of these in a minute. I hate that garish blue colour, If you're going to make a bass, at least bring it out in a colour that you would expect like blonde or 2 tone sunburst. Quote
AndyTravis Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 This Blonde version is legit, no photopokery... There's also a short scale Jaguar bass coming too... I've heard there is a Matt Freeman (Rancid) P-Bass... You ain't seen me...roight? Quote
4-string-thing Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I hope it's out before July....I've got a birthday coming up! Played one in a shop a couple of years ago..... great bass, except for....the colour! Quote
