Fender will bring out some new cheap models. Under 500 euros. One's a Tele Bass with a chrome humbucker at the neck... And at the bridge! Last one with black pick up ring. I'll post a pic asap.

They also bring out a Jazz with two DOUBLE Jazz pick ups.

Guitarwise in this series they have a Marauder, some Jaguars and some Teles.

Edit: There's also a block inlay Jaguar bass with a P pickup at the middle position and a second pick up at the bridge. Can't see what kinda pick up on on the picture. Black pickup on black bass...

Nice, a cheap lotto bass. Where can we see the specs?

It's about time they got on the ball, we just don't have enough Fender variations.  :P

My G.A.S. is now in the warmup phase....looks pretty good to me.

And it wouldn't be just a minor variation on my '63 P.

You could use an online pdf to jpg converter (like this one)

as a rapidly evolving former fender fan i find this sad. aamof my wife insists on buying me a bass because she knows i love to hang to old stuff and tweak it to death.. i went to sitar center and played a bunch of fenders. not one imho was worth buying. everything about these basses that i loved my entire life suddenly felt wrong. still not a gibson fan but... :sad:

 A tone pot ?  ;D  Completely useless with those HB's ........ I had my Squier VM Precision TB modded with an extra HB as a salute to Kenny Gradney years ago .......

when in doubt blocks and/ or binding.

I wonder Chris, where the heck are these series produced ? Are we looking at the first Made In China Fenders or what ? Tele II in a Dutch store  ;D.........
