Laura Lee of Khruangbin has the coolest Jazz I've ever seen. Anyone know if this is a regular Fender color?

Methinks it ain't a Fender but is an SX.

It's not a fender - it's an SX
EDIT: GrapeBass beat me to it

Looks like buttercream or banana pudding. Definitely not an Olympic White.
Thats what OlyWhite looks like if you hotbox it for 10-20 years. Probably wont happen so much to this generation of instruments, what with the smoking bans in most clubs.
I had a beautiful 74 jazz thst yellowed like that over time, but I don't think that bass started out white. It looks to new for that. My guess that's a mostly stock SX color.
It is, it's a popular color that was created (long ago by another company) to mimic a really aged white nitro.
The new Fender players series [aka MIM standard] color buttercream is more or less the same color as that Sx:
Weird thing is, the buttercream is only available with a maple neck (though I think it looks excellent)
If you're considering refinishing, Re-Ranch sells a color called vintage cream that will get you pretty darn close to that.. I finished this bass in that color.
