Getting a new bass in 4 weeks. Gassing for an American standard jazz. New ones can be found easy enough but what I really want is a "new" new American standard. A 2015 American standard. Any news on a release date or any info anywhere online? Been searching but have found nothing. Short of calling Fender directly I'm at a loss. All outa Gasx. Anybody know anything?
Nothing wrong with that gas. Current line of American standards are awesome with the 60s custom shop pups. If you decide you want to save a little and get a nearly new one, holler.
Really beautiful jazz you got there for sale. Anybody would be lucky to have her. But I'm and old fashioned kinda guy and am hoked on the old sunburst finishes. However that does really look awesome....no, no, no, must resist. The price is sooooo good AAAAHHHHHHHHH!....click*
Sweetwater posts pics of the actual bass alongside their serial number. Once they become available, you should be able to zero in on a year/model you like.
Lookup Sam Truebedoor at sweetwater--he works in the tech shop and sees them first when they come thru the door.
I'm pretty sure most of Fender's new stuff will ship as soon as NAMM is finished. If one of your local merchants is going to NAMM, have them place an order for you. Or you could try to order one directly from Fender's website.
I had a bad, bad case of gas yesterday. It started about 3 hours after lunch, after having eaten two heads of roasted garlic with some sliced french bread that had a beautiful, buttery sunburst toasting, and a bowl of spicy Potato/Tomatillo soup. By midnight even the dogs were giving me dirty looks. if I'd only passed on the food and bought a new American Standard Jazz during my lunch break I'm sure I'd have offended many less people throughout the course of the day! Those are some sweet basses!
Get a musicman I have been gas free since last summer when I got mine. Except for the occasional pedal purchase.
I have to ask - why? Shy do you think you need this particular bass? Have you played one that you love, or are you just seeing ads that excite you?
the answer....... well, money is the answer. money and a gf/wife that wont get on you about said gas. but mostly money.
