Possibly, I mean, they made the Mark Hoppus bass, no? But to tell you the truth, Ive never seen an actual Wentz Squier in anyones hands...

Kid 1 (playing): "This is what that guy from Rush plays."
Kid 2 (watching): "Who?"
Kid 1: "You know, Rush."
Kid 2: "Um... [shrugs] Where's the one Pete Wentz plays?"
Obviously a market...

I'm betting no one has any concrete information on whether this will happen or not. And if it does, so what? It's silly to get up in arms about who has a signature bass--that decision is purely marketing-driven, and has nothing to do with the quality of someone's playing or their music (IMO).

Obviously a market... | So these dipwads know more about music than me it would seem.
