NBD- 2015 Lake Placid Blue American Precision (ADE Content)

Right...but why is there no upcharge for it if they're shooting a colour solely for this series? No other US gets a poly LPB finish...the Ensenada MIM Standards do, though.

Well, if you look at the ADE site, you can get either alder or ash body in any of the colors that they offer, and some of those colors aren't offered on other MIA models (LPB, silverburst, sunset metallic....only one that I know of is available on an MIM bass), so my guess is they shoot finish to order for some, and have some ready to go for others. And, the base price of the ADE basses are $150 more than an American Standard, so perhaps there's the upcharge for finish work.

Of course, the only way to know for sure is to call Fender.

If that had a dark tort guard it would be perfect!

That's a pretty tiny upcharge for a custom colour and custom options. Still like $2000 Canadian, but I'd pay it. Have any Canadians tried getting one, yet? I'm curious, as I recently designed this drool-fest.

Hasn't he heard that you can't mix 4x10's with milk crates?

That bass is dreamy...totally foxy. Just when I thought I could not GAS again.....UURRRPPPP!!!!

Maybe if I stack them vertically, I'd get better dispersion???? HA!

Go for it- but not sure if they ship to Canadia. Where is that any way?

Great website, would be perfect if one could choose for a matching headstock (let's say for a LPB Fender Jazz Bass)

And more custom colors besides LPB!
