BassAgent Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Limited editions for 2024. They're so hideous I want a VI. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelDean Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I sent these round the band yesterday after I had an email from GAK about them, saying we could all have matching guitars. One guitarist was very keen. The other decided not to comment 😅 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) That's going to split the crowd. I know there's fans af Antigua out there but I've also heard it described, more than once, as Fender's most repulsive finish ever. Personally, while I'm not sure about the other models in that picture, for some reason I reckon it really suits the Bass VI Edited April 11 by Cato Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floFC Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I may finally buy a bass VI! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono Bolton Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I'd be more interested in the P if the neck had dots instead of blocks. I don't know why Squier (and Fender) have blocks on their 70s Precisions when almost every genuine 70s Fender P I've seen has just had a normal neck on it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highfox Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I'm going to find it hard to resist one of these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Its ugly but kind of cool, now I have the chance to own one! I'm with @Jono Bolton though, it would look better with dots than blocks.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Valdemar Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Truly disgusting, like silverburst. But, unlike silverburst, I'd happily own them all. That VI is something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjones Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Some paint jobs, like Antigua are very Marmite (you either love them or hate them). I'm not a big fan of Antigua but do love the Dark Knight paint job but some others hate it. Personally I get a tingle every time I see one.

Can't be doing with blocks on a P bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I love blocks on any bass. Can't love the snotburst though, sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uk_lefty Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 While I like the finish... It does make me think of a very badly stained pub toilet. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) Always liked Antigua, but then, I have no taste. Quite relieved there's no Jazz. And I definitely don't need another Strat. Do I?
