NBD more more boring Fender content (but not boring lefty content)

Just unpacked this beauty Monday.

What product line is that?

I'm not au fait with the decal placements on left handed Fenders, but the 75th anniversary decal would suggest it's from 2021 (I don't see a serial number to confirm that) : I'm really surprised if left handed Am Pro II's didn't feature the contoured neck heel - that seems a really unfair omission (I can't read what's on the neck plate, so maybe it's a different product line).

This is a 2026 Mod Shop ordered from Fender March of this year. So no contoured neck heel. Dark Night with Roasted Maple neck. Serial number on the neck plate. I'm not sure why they stamped it with the 75the Anny logo.

Very nice. Congrats.
The neck looks really good with that finish.

Oh, nice!

Yeah, it's typical Fender to have two 75th anniversaries (almost as confusing as EBMM vs SBMM).

I seem to remember the only way you could previously get a Dark Night with a maple board, was to buy a 5-string, which was really annoying.

Congratulations!

Lovely colour - be even better naked… no pick guard!!

That is one VERY pretty instrument, and I'm not even into FSOs these days.

Play it in good health and enjoy!

Everyone needs a blue bass. You've reached the pinnacle of blue!

Love it! Though I admit the mirror image effect of left handed instruments always look really strange to me.

Fenders are boring (jk) but that finish never is.
