New Fender Boxer 2020
- Thread starter Lammchop93

Hmmm....
Look like a pick guard less PJ bass with jazz bass neck .
The toggle switch just a pickups selector.
Plus..... elec. guitar string on this bass ？！？！
Dint seem any special on Boxer bass, but more alike a Fender strike back weapon to Ibanez RGB300 ？！？！

Interesting that the green one is “Sherwood Green Metallic”.
It looks a lot different (to my eye) than other Fender Sherwood Green examples I’ve seen, I’m surprised they didn’t call it something else.

another recycled product from Fender corp. ... clap
I'm not seeing a boxer anything, but if it's kinda like the duff McKagan one I'm sure it's cool
You already know what fender does, and it's not going to change, why act surprised or even disappointed about it?another recycled product from Fender corp. ... clap
This is exactly the bass to play if you're in a rock band. this is a great offering from Fender imo.
I guess I was more confrontational than I needed to be, it's really all good
12" radius is my new favourite too, after playing the Jaco for a few months now.
So close Fender. Finally a pickguard-less bass with black hardware.
Now, if I could just get it in a color I like.

It's hard to see in the pics but looks like 20:1 ratio on the Gotoh Classic tuning Machines. The boxer pickups are nice and punchy. It looks like some decent Rosewood is being use for the fret board.
I Like It! Not the green though. Torino Red looks great.

I’ll be looking to grab up some of those knobs for my bass. I wonder if they are set-screw?
The Boxers were always my favorite Fenders...but I am an 80s kid...very cool that they sort of brought them back
Anyone know how the tooling works? Do they literally dust off the old specs / production materials and fire them up again or are they all re-done from scratch using originals as a guide? Especially pickups, hardware etc that were unique to the 80s basses.
Link not working for me in the UK - would anyone mind posting some screen shots? I’m intrigued to see!
