Fender Custom Shop Club

I'd like a number please. I've wondered why there hasn't been a CS Club before; thanks for taking this on. Sign me up. Here are pics of my two CS '64 NOS Jazz Basses and my new (arrived yesterday) CS '60 NOS Precision Bass. I use TI flats; I'll put them on the P in a few days.

That blue one has my mouth lathered-up right now. Absolutely sexy!!!!!
 
64 relic time machine jazz(discontinued), an 08 vintage, new to me. This beast is realy like a few pre cbs jazzes that I have had a chance to play. Amazing tone, crystal clear and much less hot than my am.std fender jazzes. Neck is worn like nice old catchers mitt. A dream.

^That Jazz is gorgeous^

Awaiting a reliced 62 P Bass in 3 tone sunburst that I found on the 'Bay. I can't wait to string it with flats and plug it in to behold it's Funk Machine goodness.

By the way, do you think the Fender Custom Shop will ever be able to reproduce the smell of an old bass?

Ha ha, thank you for the kind words. I saw that Lovely 62 P, congratulations! Funny thing is i am really surprised at how much i like the mellow clear sound compared to my other three jazzes which are way hotter sounding. A real change for me and the neck dare I say, is almost on the John Kallas level...

Bought my lightly relic'd Surf Green 60 RI CS this January. Quite a bass! And the inside of the tweed case...! It smells amazing, dont know why. Like vanilla or something.
But yeah the bass is good too.

Is it worth digging through this thread to find pics?
Gotta see a surf green one, where's the pics?

Nope, no pics, how is a bass supposed to exist w/o Internet forum pictures?
So far your Surf Green 60 RI CS is still in the (that which we do not speak of) category.

You need to post pics, or the entire world is going to cave in onto itself. Do it NOW man, do it NOW!!!!
