When does Fender do line up changes?

Along with a Ric I have GAS for a Jaguar Bass and so does my buddy.

He is thinking of getting one from that big web company but I keep wondering how good of an idea is it to order a bass in the summer mail order? Any humble views on that? It's 103 out today in the DFW area.

Anyway, they are backorederd when I was looking at the site and I got to thinking, when ever year does Fender do line up changes and option changes? Don't they do it usally twice a year?

I am wondering if the Jag Bass is gonna be around for awhile and if it will come in something like Surf Green next year.

If it is not going to come until Oct. or something and Fender changes options in Jan. it might be worth waiting a few months more.

Do they make changes at certain times or just whenever historically?

Anybody got any insight on stuff they might be doing in the near future?
