ped Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Looks a lot like the Aria that famous geezer plays. Looks nice, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7string Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Nice to see Fender being brave for a change. I expect that Steve Bailey's fretless is going to be very expensive and (as usual for USA Fenders) way overpriced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dub_junkie Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 the Strat jack socket kills the looks for me.shame as its otherwise quite nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velvetkevorkian Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I'd play that. Bring on the Squier £200 version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzz Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Kudos for Fender, isn't that their first 6 string bass (not counting the baritone guitar) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamster Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I think the 3 string bass would be more a break from the norm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than the rubbish telecaster cup things, more accessible than an edge mount and it points the right way to go through the strap.

It's shorter than a usual Fender, but I don't think it counts as a Baritone guit. Roy Babbington of Soft Machine played one for years....

WHUFC BASS Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Price is ridiculous. You could get a lot better for that price, even a custom job with select woods. You're just paying for the name on that thing as is the case with most of the stuff Gibson do nowadays. Has nobody told Fender there's a recession on.

Which is semi awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
