Basses you would like to see reissued

This. Grabber. Ripper. Wal.
 
Ampeg AMB-1 Scroll Head
Ampeg AMUB-1 Fretless Scroll Head
Rickenbacker Semi Hollow 4005
Ovation Magnum 1
G&L SB-1

Bruce Johnson of XStrange is making updated versions of the Scroll Heads and they are amazing but they are expensive and quite different from the originals. Rickenbacker is unfortunately not interested in bringing back the 4005 and the Ovation Magnum 1 is an odd, rare and wonderful bass that will most likely only be available used.

A more affordable AV version of the 64 Jazz bass (three knob configuration), with a good assortment of 60s Fender custom colors like firemist gold and sea foam green).


I agree! I think if Fender had enough demand they might consider making the 60's Classic Jazz basses in more colors. Sea Foam with a matching headstock would be SWEET!

I would love to see Guild reissue the Starfire II again. Wouldn't mind a Danelectro Shorthorn either!
