Fender needs to make a Talkbass edition

[grendle]

Tb would also have to squash any use of their name associated with it as they have in the past. It would need to be called the unnamed special edition bass.

May be they could paint it some god awful color and call it something Delight

So butterscotch/sunburst/neon orange delight flip flop

with a tort/neon toilet seat pearl flip flop pickguard?

 

[Wesley R]

Could it be available in a 7/8 ths body size?

That should work as long as it is still chambered/semi-hollow. AND has a VTC

 

[DanGouge]

Carrot orange Precision with a "best bass for metal" stamped on the back of headstock.

Also there should be a Squier version for a fraction of the price so we can argue whether anyone can tell the difference or not.

 

[grinx]

needs to ship with multiple versions of headstock decals:
Fender/Squier/Squire/(custom)

insertable ramp to extend the fretboard to 24 frets

flip-up thumbrest

clear pickup covers and ashtrays

world's thinnest high-mass bridge

string tree shaped like a xmas tree

Best thread EVER!!

 

[P Town]

Yeah, and people would buy them, and route the bodies, to change the pickups, because the stock pickups just did not sound good to their ears.

 

[amimbari]

problem with any major company making a "TB special" is that 3/4 of you numbnutz could never decide what it should look like, sound like, or play like.

EPIC-FAIL.

It must come with 2 year old (minimum) strings.

don't forget a lever that converts from fretted to fretless. Some mechanism that pulls he frets down into the fingerboard.. That would give you your lined fretless. Then you need a second mode that pulls them under the fingerboard so matching wood inlays rise up and make it look like an unlined fretless.

 

[MikeBass]

It would have to be a Precision of course, tort guard, and it would ship with flats...

Just what we need....ANOTHER P-Bass thats exactly like every other P-Bass Fender makes....

Ha! Love the Squire vs. Squier choice there.

 

[mpdd]

steel pickguard with moveable magnetic thumbrest

 

[ericdanger13]

If fender did a squire version of this bass we would all complain how it doesn't come in carrot orange and it would have the wrong fretboard on it.

TalkBass: the only place where everything is right and wrong.

 

[Nev375]

Would it come with a bag of carrots?

X8

Carrot inlays on the neck.

 

[ggvicviper]

It now has too many switches for it to be Talkbass.

What the bass needs is these features without switches to operate them. You need to be able to control the features with your mind.

Are there seriously still people reading this thread and missing the joke(s)?
