Any chance Fender starts producing these in any color other than black? Sure would look great in olympic or vintage white and tort pickguard.

Yes of course it is possible. Anything is possible. However Fender's Modern Player basses are the lowest price point Fender basses. Good quality for made in China instruments too. Therefore Fender wants to keep the cost down and the quality up. Doing different colors simultaneously complicates and slows down production which would make them cost more money per unit. I would think Fender would be more likely to change the color on all of them than to make a choice of colors available. I could see maybe a color change coming eventually to keep the model fresh. They do that from time to time on some models like the Mark Hoppus signature which is a long running model with limited colors available at any one time but Fender has changed colors on that model every few years. I don't see a tort guard happening though as tort is typically the most expensive guard material. If they went to white finish then the guard would most likely go black for contrast.

Thanks for the reply...yeah I wasn't expecting to see a tort guard on it but maybe I can have one made after market. I'm not holding my breath for white though...I'm guessing even if there are color options it would be black, candy apple red, and maybe sunburst. Nothing against any of those of course but I've got each of those colors already. :D

I know I could just get a P or Deluxe with the color combinations I wanted but I like the MP Jaguar body. Always loved the Jaguars but just prefer a P so this would be the best of both worlds. Anyway...we can always hope.

I really don't think there will be color choices, but maybe a color change in the single color offered eventually. That seems to be the pattern.
