I would have bought the single-bucker Esquire immediately, if it had been available without fake aging and wear. It wasn't, so I didn't.


So why don't you just order one? It's what the custom shop is intended for "custom" orders.


Because of the 2-3 year long wait. I'm getting older, and won't buy something I might not even see before I'm dead.


These are teambuilt instruments, they don't take years.

They ALMOST had me with the Proto P bass. ALMOST. A beautiful first generation P frame with a TV Jones? Interesting. Very interesting. However, they lost me at the Medium Jumbo frets. The perfection of the 7.25 radius and no vintage frets? Maybe next time.

I've been dying to take the plunge, but a CS Precision would be a serious investment for me. An investment that I'd want to make sure I was happy with from strap button to headstock.

Now, offer me a Proto P with a semi hollowbody and vintage frets and I'm a goner.

As always, though. Staggeringly beautiful instruments across the board.
