Roger2611 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Err I just ended up designing the basses I already own....doh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubinga5 Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) they need a few more (Fender) body colour options imo, but good call fender, a step in the right direction. you can get your neck plate personalised also. and do remember this is not the Custom Shop, but also i do wonder what the cost would be.? also like the fact they will put a Jazz neck on a P Bass.

[i]A sleekly curvaceous body shape featuring an elegantly stylish and remarkably comfortable offset waist.[/i] [/quote] You've got to stop trying to use Basschat as an internet dating site, Ian. Trust me, it doesn't work. I just went through the process on the web site and ended up with... a stock American Standard Jazz Bass in Olympic White. A lovely bass for sure, but unfortunately, when I went through the process of actually trying to buy that exact bass in real life, I gave up after the first five ( yes, five) examples that Fender sent me were defective or substandard in one way or another. Maybe Fender should rename it the American Substandard range? Never mind giving people the ability to design their own bass, Fender should concentrate a bit more on how they themselves are making them .

Mornats Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Is it just me or could I only choose combinations that match their current range of basses? More choice of colours would be brilliant I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
