Thanks. That's a No for me. Reminds me to much of 3rd party/parts necks. They need more brand emphasis here.

Are they only offering the Mary Kay Cadillac finish?

Pink?? With a mint green pick guard and a headstock color that really doesn't match anything? Ugh.

What about the Rosewood import ban?

It's American Made so the import ban is not relevant to US buyers... They either are using up their Rosewood inventory or they legally imported the raw materials.

IMO the black headstock is odd with this. Otherwise, I dig the shell pink/mint guard/rosewood board combo.

I love pink.
I love the rosewood veneer headstock.

I don't like them together. A Reese's , this bass is not.

Where’s the headstock decal?

Pink?? With a mint green pick guard and a headstock color that really doesn't match anything? Ugh.

It is a solid rosewood neck, not a painted or veneered headstock. The logo is laser etched into the rosewood.

Brilliant bit of advertising that they failed to show the headstock of at least one of them.
Looks great in Surf Green.

I really dont like the look of that neck on that finish/pg.

Thanks for emphasizing that these have all rosewood necks! Too bad no one will read your post before they post about the necks being black or veneer or some other incorrect material/finish.

I don't mind pink or rosewood but that combo just isn't working for me. I don't like the green at all.

EDIT: THE HEADSTOCK LOGO MAY BE BURNED IN (NOT A GOOFED UP DECAL)


IMO, the color combo is off, and a lot of people seem to agree.

I observe that pink and "girly" color instruments tend to be valued much higher than the same axe in standard colors, years down the line.

 

[Smooth_bass88]

Aww yeah that looks cool. Love it

 

[SteveCS]

I actually like that. Don't know why, but I do.

I like it as well. The shell pink and slightly greenish pickguard are very psychedelic, and all the more so for not being in your face - it kind of plays with your head rather than assaulting it. That and the dark neck create a very artful photo-negative effect. Just needs some of those dayglo strings and a strobe light...

Shouldn’t it have a really dark tort pickguard, though?

Dig!

 

[TN WOODMAN]

I want both. Unfortunately just found out I need to replace the HVAC in my rental house. ($5400)

 

[InhumanResource]

The headstock kinda throws me. Matching headstock would have been the bomb.

Yeah. I really dislike this look. Oh well.

 

[BigBigGuy44]

Here's hoping Musician's Friend will carry it. Love that neck!

 

[TN WOODMAN]

Thinking same thing on MF. Save tax, 36 mos. @ 0%, less than $100 per month. Mmmm...

The "gospel" according to TalkBass - all basses look better with tort!: any other color is blasphemy ! (blasphemer here !)!

The icing on the cake is the black decal on rosewood. Why would that even leave the factory?

Looks more like they've etched the logo into the rosewood to me.

 

[Watchootognbout]

If the body was real walnut.
And had a clear pickguard,it'd be stunning!
I cannot stand Fender colors!
