la bam Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 (edited) Very chuffed this week! I've wanted one of these for over a year. They allegedly only did 200 in this colour as a special run then discontinued them. So, when this came up I was very lucky. Took a chance and it arrived in unused immaculate condition, still with the plastic coverings on. The colour is stunning. Not obnoxious green, but not subtle! I have a fender player in sunburst so I knew what to expect, but the maple neck is lovely and bright and the whole bass is fantastically balanced and plays superb.

spongebob Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Those Player series colours are fab. They should give some of US ones some shades like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geek99 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I like the green, but yellow plus maple would look like cat-sick with strings 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They love the cheap almost translucent sauce all over them, and so did I when visiting! They know how to eat out there 😋 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassassin Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Daring colour for dear old Fender. Although they missed a trick not calling it P Green. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc S Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Came back for another look at this bass And I like it now, more so than when I saw it the first time! It might just be my new favourite colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
la bam Posted April 26, 2021 Author Share Posted April 26, 2021 When I first saw them a few years ago I thought it was absolutely awful, but maybe its a bit of lockdown madness, but now I love it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a great idea.. but it'd only work if they didn't use it on any other body style; Can't be having a Jazz in "P" Green.. 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been there too often myself. However, you can't have ALL the basses you've ever liked... sadly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
