Title: Fano Alt De Facto PX4 Nonreverse bass
Post by: hollowbody on August 17, 2009, 10:34:25 PM
It appears that Fano guitars is making a Nonreverse/Fenderbird bass.  Here's the link fo it.  Of course, it's already been sold.

With that extended upper horn it looks more like a Jaguar/Jazzmaster influence to me.

I think it's pretty cool, love the color but that shade of green wouldn't look good near me.

Well, it is Antigua, that's always been a finish some people love to hate. This one seems to have more green than a Fender Antigua.

Perhaps the color is "Asparagus Antigua"?

So I take it that some of us aren't 100% thrilled about the color.  ;)

Hey Antigua is back!  Next stop- harvest gold refrigerators, and avocado stoves...

I think that bass is cool, but then again most of my basses are brown - so to me this represents a "color splash!", as they say on the home and garden tv.   :)

Joe... NO...! stick to the brown... please...!

"Colour Splash"... that's the name of my T'bird fin; Tequilabird, no more...  ;)

Er... Colour-Splash-Bird...? CS'bird...? doesn't have the same ring...

Should have the shed finished this week, then it's "Off With It's Splash..."

I can assure you, my bretheren (and sisteren), "Antigua" is off my list...
