merello Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 (edited) If anyone buys this green beauty - geeza shot! Seafoam green with a black bound and blocked geddy type neck! £150 cheaper than Nevada!

gjones Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 This Sir is a travesty! Only Jazz basses are allowed to be seafoam green. Quote
CBbass Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 Seriously my least favourite colour. But good on fender for bringing black blocks to a P bass. Quote

Musicman20 Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 It's more of a metallic green in reality. Not proper seafoam. Total rip off IMO, for what it is. Quote

Musicman20 Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 A player posted a pic on Talkbass and it's very metallic, not pastel, which is an odd choice. Quote

Sean Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 Seafoam green is my favourite colour (I don't own one), I love Precisions (I don't own one), I love black blocks on maple (don't own one), I love the P/J config too but this just doesn't work for me. I'm guessing that it's MIM? Quote

It's like putting Dolly Parton's boobs on Kylie. Quote

Wooks79 Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 So nasty that it's already reduced by a couple of hundred on GAK - http://www.gak.co.uk/en/fender-fsr-precision-bass-special-sea-foam-metallic-maple/65404 Quote
