Why isn't Fender making the Fender American Vintage '75 Jazz Bass® Maple Neck with White Binding and Pearloid Block Inlay. It would be the best. :P

Hobbyist: I agree. Not only that, but it would be more of an accurate representation of how they were that year. I've seen overwhelmingly more original '75s with the pearloid than the black. 73 maples on the other hand were overwhelmingly with black blocks.
Guaranteed, Fender would sell more of the '75 RIs with the pearloid.
There is already the very similar Geddy Lee model with the black blocks & binding. :?

I think it could be just for contrast sake. Black blocks stand out better on a maple board. Pearloid blocks look washed out on maple in my opinion. They look and stand out way better on rosewood. My question is why doesn't Fender offer the 75 Jazz bass in colours? White or that banana yellow would be sweet as well as three tone sunburst.
