So on Andertons you can see the new CV Mustang Bass (available in Surf green and Olympic white) and Jaguar Bass (in Sunburst and Black). Also, a FSR edition of the CV Jazzmaster with Anodized pickguard.

I'm disappointed that they didn't make the Mustang Bass in Red (Torino or Fiesta) but used that crap tortoise pickguard on a plain white.

The gold/surf green combo on that Jazzmaster is making me feel some type of way, for sure.

I wouldn't have imagined this colour combo working, but it kinda has a 'ancient patinaed artefact' vibe to it, I quite like it

I really can't stand it. All the "premium quality" appeal, disappeared. I wonder who is the designer behind these aesthetic combo mix, who is charged to choose and realize them at Fender. Still, the Oly White Mustang Bass is a classic and quite nice but this version seems absolutely cheap and trash.
They could have used a decent brown tort pickguard (like on the rest of the CV series) but they have recycled some spare lasagna-like sheets from the old Vintage Modified series. Sad reaction only.

On Andertons the price for a Mustang Bass is £ 319 (almost € 350, more or less). But on Thomann they are available in pre-order for € 408. Why this difference?

Fuck man, $350 for the surf green bass or $399 for the surf pearl contemporary starcaster....or maybe $300 for the basic starcasters...Fender is finally pulling me away from the pointyass guitar brands

I just ordered one in Surf Green from this website, supposed to ship on 8/27. I bought my Ukulele from them a few weeks ago so they are legit.

They're the same company as Guitar Center, Musicians Friend, and Music123.

I should have known this. When shopping for my uke their sale price matched Target, Walmart and Best Buy but not MF/GC/M123 so I assumed they were independent. Oh well.
