New Fender Dimension Bass

Actually they do a little. That's why people put pick guards on them.

Fender is after that EB and Lakland Player money. And they have different models at different price points. I commend them for not offering another P or JB model :-) I was talking to a bass player friend who is really into to Fenders and he is excited about these. He has already made a decision to get one.
 
After playing that one, I am really GASing for one of the IV HH models. Wish they would have released it in some of the old colors like Surf Green or Shell Pink and I wish they would release an HH model in the Deluxe non-American series (the US series instruments are getting a bit pricey, IMHO)... I guess I want it all, lol.
 
It appears that the American Deluxe and the "Mexican" Deluxe have the same electronics in it.......I find that odd for the $1300+ difference in the two.

PLUS, did anyone else notice that the bridge humbucker on the single pup model is closer to the bridge than on the 2 pup model??
