oldslapper Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 (edited) Doesn’t have to be exclusively Fender, but I can’t help but roll my eyes at their model naming. It always suggests to me that there is an alternative series. Professional Series: Amateur Series? Player Series: Just Looking Series? Black top: White behind? I guess there’s only so many times you can rebrand a P bass? 🙄 Edited March 31, 2023 by oldslapper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
