C’mon now, take it all the way... somebody with photoshop skills needs to show us this but with a matching tort head, tort blocks, tort binding on a light maple neck. I’d buy it in a heartbeat. I can only pay $2400 tops.

Swap out that neck for a maple neck with a snakewood fingerboard p neck
That would sound best with several cabinets, all with different speaker sizes.
Weight? I hear the matching smallest, loudest, lightest bass cab is coming soon...
They are strung with Fender's new "Flat-Rounds".
They use quantum technology to produce a string that is both flatwound and roundwound at the same time. They are also tort.
Tort fretboard....and then you've got something. As it is there's wood still showing.
It needs to be totally tort! Tort hardware, tort neck, tort headstock, tort fretboard, tort guard, tort finished metal surfaces, tort pickup.
100% Tort!

Yes! they should do carrot neck inlays, like Musicman did martini inlays.
That would look good with a tort strap.
Also, Fender needs to include a packet of (plastic) tort picks, heavy gauge.

I wouldn’t put a lit cigarette on that headstock. It’d likely go up in flames.
Almost there... can you give us a maple neck with tort blocks by chance?
