I have doubts this exists, especially with red strings and a Fender finger rest.  Nowhere to be seen on Musician's Friend.

Here's the TB thread that goes back to December 2010 and lasted one day.  The guy who started it is getting the next JAEbird.

I'm thinking Vaporbass.

Vaporbass.....................................lmao! I think Epiphone did a F style finger rest on the Elites series EB3s.

Maybe it's some short run for the Japanese market like those pastel SG Basses.
