New PJ Mustang at Summer NAMM

[BoomFish]

Here is a pic of the "Twins"

There is a little amount of neck dive on both. More so on the Mustang P90
Both weigh 7lbs 6oz each
But the PJ sounds really good

The Sonic Blue's do look to have very little blue in them

I'd check the label on the Fender Box and see if it does indeed say Sonic Blue on it while matching up the serial number on the bass to the box

I saw 4 Sonic Blue PJ's earlier today on Sweetwater's site and now there gone. I'm sure they sold because I was able to purchase both of these and they never where up on the site. Jason just sent me the photo's of them that were going to be put up on the site.

strange though that there isn't any stock picture on the site stating "more arriving soon"

Sounds like Daphne blue would have been a better choice. No question whether its white or blue.

Same with thier Ebay listings. I've been debating all day. All 4 were up this morning, all SB and then gone by end of day.

I called Sweetwater to see if they had Torino Reds in stock and they said yes.

This was about 5 p.m. eastern time and whoever I talk to said they weren't on the site yet.

Someone mentioned earlier in the thread that they weren't supposed to be up on site until the 4th.

Hopefully they'll have all 3 colors up by tomorrow.

Well, there was one listed earlier today, but now that link is dead. Maybe they weren't supposed to be listed yet? Did the bass sell out?

There were actually 4 listed when I checked - all blue. You can find their weights in post #358.
Maybe they weren't supposed to be put up yet, but given the number of people interested in this bass,
I wouldn't be surprised if they all sold right away.

This is seeming a little like the release of the Squier VI, pent up demand instantly soaked up everything released for the first few months. If you want one soon you probably need to get off the fence and act quickly. If you can stand to wait then I am sure they will make enough for everyone who wants one. I did not order my VI until months after they were first shipped. I had to wait six or eight weeks but I got one and it was everything I had hoped for. Good luck everyone, I might order one eventually but I won't be competing with you for the first shipments. That Torino Red does look pretty nice....

Fender has them listed on their site now.

Fender probably didn't want them listed on their dealer sites until they listed them on the Fender site.

Weird that they have a string-through-body bridge listed as a feature.
Mine doesnt have it and their pictures dont have it.

They pulled the link. If they were sold out, the link would have just gone to the page like it always does and shows a pic of the item and description of it saying more are on their way. I think someone screwed up and put it up a day early.

 

[mbell75]

aaaaand theyre back.

 

[felis]

aaaaand theyre back.

Fender Mustang Bass PJ - Sonic Blue

Now it says two are 7lb/13oz, and two are 8lb/3oz.

Even the Fender site still insists it has string through body while the closeup picture clearly shows otherwise.

 

[lowplaces]

Typo

They meant Bridge screws through body LOL

 

[Brio]

OW on its way to me via Sweetwater and completely unrelated, my shakes and night sweats and insomnia are gone. So I got that goin' for me.

Which is nice.

 

[felis]

Well - that was fast!
The blue ones that Sweetwater had are gone already.
They show 2 red ones in stock: Fender Mustang PJ Bass - Torino Red
7lb/10oz and 8lb even.

Sam Ash shows they have all the colors in stock: Invalid Link Removed

A couple smaller shops have them too: fender p/j mustang bass - Google Search

 

[lowplaces]

Sam Ash , and many other sites as well , claim these have maple "fingerboards". Fretted instruments have fretboards not fingerboards LOL

Sad that a major company can't provide accurate descriptions of their products. Typos are understandable but these issues regarding the fretboards and through body bridges have been pointed out for months.
