American Standard Hand Stained Ash Precision Bass® by Fender Bass Guitars For those looking for new non-boring finishes on Fender basses... Cross-posted here: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/fender-factory-special-runs-872961/ Sorry for the cross post, but this thread wasn't supposed to be about the fact that they are "factory special runs," but about the fact that these are MIA, ash-bodied, hand-stained American Standards, and are brand new.
When I first saw them, my first though was 'crap. No 5-string.' I really do think they're very nice-looking. Uh... So maybe the lack of a 5ver is a *good* thing!
few other threads on them as well if your interested: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/fender-american-standard-hand-stained-ash-857362/ http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/fender-ash-stained-867476/ http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/fender-fsr-p-basses-867242/ http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/fender-american-standard-hand-stained-ash-precision-bass-862934/ pics in this thread iirc: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/photos-fender-hand-stained-am-std-861890/
Lol I searched and found nothing. I thought I was first out of the gate, guess not. Thanks for the links!
