There is a lot to be said about buying American. I don't care what anybody says, there is just no comparison. I definitely would pay more to keep manufacturing here in the States. ( especially with hardwoods from Canada)

I purchased an American made Tele a couple of years ago, brand new, but modified by Pat's Guitars. This guitar has some awesome upgrades, particularly in the switches and wiring. It is a beautiful crimson mahogany, with a pair of humbuckers that are sweet. I highly recommend Pat's Guitars. He deals pretty much exclusively with Fender, but does some other stuff too.

Pat's Guitars does not only offer customised guitars but also make their own Fender amp replicas. Hopefully I thought they could build a couple of custom basses as well to meet the demands of electric bass aficionados.

That's right, I remember seeing a couple of amps in Pat's pics. Now that I think of it though, I don't think I've ever seen a base guitar.
I don't know much about the base, however, it seems as though Fender dominates. John Paul Jones played one for years with Zep. Is that the case? Maybe it's because I just don't pay too much attention the base guitars out there.
