    Well folks, the year is almost at an end, and we have another fun-fulfilled year to look forward to.

    What would you like to see from your favorite bass manufacturer in the coming year? Would it be a six-string that the company has yet to produce, or a certain color that you'd like to see in your favorite model? How about different wood selections or pick-up configurations other than what's been offered? I'm curious to hear what people's opions are.

    Mine would simply be a 2006 olympic white Fender American Jazz with a tort pickguard.
     
  2. Ibanez to start making ATK's again :)

    I'd like more manufactures to start offering midi and piezeo options, in particular warwick. I would also LOVE a new all tube Trace amp.

    +2, and while we're at it, no unnecessary body routing under the pickguard. If Squier and Fender Japan can do it, why can't Fender USA?
     
  16. hell yeah...i like that one :)

    for an international law to be passed saying anything pertaining to bass must be under 200.00 GBP so i can buy a decent bass lol.
    Other than that, perhaps a new bass from fender not based on the jazz or precision.

    1. I'd like to see Fodera come out with a more affordable line.
    2. I'd like to see Mike Lull offering the old Modern (M4 & M5) body styles again, even if only as an option.
    3. I'd like to see singlecuts from Elrick, Nordstrand, Eshenbaugh, CB basses Stambaugh and Fodera, all of which belong to me and sitting in my living room! :D
