Fender/Squier 2022

A pic of a Meteora bass was leaked briefly in error.

Nice! I'll wait for the reverse Meteora before pulling the trigger.

Good lord, that Meteora is one ugly bass, and the candy corn color scheme is revolting. Even worse than Gibson's clownburst.

That's funny, I was going to post the opposite - which shows there are always different reactions to body shape and finish.

Point to the spot on the LP where the Boss touched you.

LOL!

No Springsteen records in my house, and it has nothing to do with label colors. I've never been a fan.

He wrote one good song (Born to Run), everything else I can't listen to.

Interesting sunburst on this one. Looks like an amateur hand-rubbed burst.

They forgot to finish painting it black!

Aside from the fact that he can't sing, he's a great musician.

But the same is also true of Bob Dylan, and he hasn't done too badly.

I'd love to be as bad a singer and as successful as either of them.

None of these basses are doing much for me I'm afraid. A cynical trawl of the parts bins of yesteryear.

Like the burst pattern on a Gibson Roy Smeck.

[Chris P.]

I like the burst on the Gibson, but not on the Fender.

About the Meteora. It stands out. And it's something different than the umpteenth J or P. I've seen pics in blue and it looks the part!

I'm willing to bet it's not comfortable to play sitting down, not enough bottom horn there to stop it from slipping off your thigh.

I don't see a problem there

[4stringer77]

The perfect bass to play the Eagles' tequila sunrise.

[Basvarken]

A little bird told me you might like this...

[Pilgrim]

Not bad!  I appreciate it when Fender does something a bit different.
