Fender jazz- gold or silver

do all silvers fade to green or just the inca silver ones? blizzard pearl isn't the same color/shade as inca silver, so maybe it won't fade?
as far as your question goes: I don't like either color... so can't help you there...

 

Did you play the gold one?

The 2008 MIA standard are really nice so if the gold one isn´t "the one" i would go for the silver.

IMHO!

Best of luck!

 

I didn't think American Standard Jazz basses came in Shoreline Gold.
Here are the color choices shown on the Fender website:
Candy Cola Maple
3-Color Sunburst Rosewood
Olympic White Rosewood
Black Rosewood
Candy Cola Rosewood
Blizzard Pearl Rosewood
Charcoal Frost Metallic Rosewood
3-Color Sunburst Maple
Olympic White Maple
Black Maple
Blizzard Pearl Maple
Charcoal Frost Metallic Maple


I have a Shoreline Gold P Bass. They had it in the American Series for only a year or two. Fender is always switching up the colors.
I was looking for a silver P Bass in 2006 and found that Fender had discontinued silver P basses and replaced them with gold P basses -- so I went gold.

 

CANDY COLA MAPLE

Haha sorry. I Have to stop doing that in every "what color new american std should i get".

But get it.

 

I have a brand new 3-color sunburst with maple board on it's way from MF. I love that color combo. Shorline Gold is still pretty decent looking.

 

go go go for gold!!!

 

(couldn't resist)


I'd wait an find a new American Standard to try out before you bought the old model.

Then make your decision.

 

Gold is better than silver, but the older bass won't have the 2008 upgrades (bridge, tuners, case).

 

'Twas thinking the same thing. I would go for silver. JMO
