    I doubt it. It's one of Fender's most selling basses.
     
  3. I don't think it is being discontinued, just revamped to what he currently is playing

    haha okay good.

    its really just going to give you the sound your dirnt does, the hoppus is manily the same tone you get from a p bass with 1/4 pounds.

    i would know my p bass is just like a hoppus smae neck sam pick ups only one volume sounds just like my hoppus did

    that was done in like '07 i dont think it made that big of a sound difference mabe? my hoppus was one of the first issues so it was not reversed. I think the hoppus is over priced it should be around 600$

    yeah. I'm waiting for em (used) to be like $250. I'd make it a P/J with Qp jazz pup. Or even a J/p like you thought of! And make it Vol/Vol/ton instead of just vol.

    You two need to get a room.

    But I would like to see the new Hoppus.. it may have a maple neck, as I think the one he is playing has a maple neck.

    You would like to see that! :rollno:


    I love the hoppus bass! I want the one that has reversed pups!
     
  18. WHEW! For a minute there I thought the entire bass playing world was about ot cometo screeching halt and land us in a perpetual dark age of folk music with nothing but MArtin guitars and some idiot blasting away on a harmonica telling us that corporate greed raped his mother and ran over his dog! That was a scary five minutes.
