oh sick! i'm guessing p style slab with an f hole and tele style headstock no idea what pu config though.

O how exciting

I dont know about exciting, mildly interesting maybe. I dont really understand a lot of things Fender does and I am prepared to not understand this one either.

 

[ampegfuzz]

a single mudbucker in the neck would do for me

 

[Stranger Danger]

Maybe like this from drewfx

My VM P-Bass TB:

Mods:
Added Seymour Duncan SCPB-1 pickup
3-way toggle switch
Bridge cover
Thumbrest
Hipshot BT7 detuner

 

[ThaLowEndTheory]

I'm gonna say a PJ. Wasn't that the most common mod in the 70's? Though a mudbucker would be cool.

 

[jmercer91]

not another pj

 

[ampegfuzz]

did fender make a semi hollow mudbucker?

 

[SMILEYSIXX]

$50 says it's a PJ.

Sunburst slab P pody, '72 era pickguard, V/V/T, Jazz neck maple/maple. That's my guess.

 

[ampegfuzz]

If it ends up being just like the guitar '72 semi-hollow with just a mudbucker and in that sonic blue. color me interested!

Edit: only nat and 3ts

 

[ShoeManiac]

Hmmmm. '72? I gotta think it might be a Telecaster bass with the mudbucker.

 

[bobbolux]

PJ Precision with 70's RW jazz neck, and maybe a badass bridge? that's my guess.

 

[Sleeq]

MAYBE (given Fender's stuck with the 70's styling these days):

Black / Maple neck P-bass, cream pickup covers, J pickup.

 

[Sleeq]

Oh wait sunburst or natural?

Then same as above but Rosewood neck.

 

[chicago_mike]

RW...they wouldnt be goofy enough to do a rosewood body would they??

 

[bassman275]

stop /thread

 

[meRTKendrew]

It wont have f holes, and it wont be a rosewood body. It's going to be based on what Fender think are popular mods on 70's basses. So my guess is a P bass with either a mudbucker or a jazz pick up.
