Up for sale is a beautiful USA Candy Apple Red Jazz Bass body. It's dated Oct 2022 and I think the AO line was officially discontinued by then. I read somewhere that the American Classic line is the successor to the AO line? Maybe someone else knows more about that? Anyway, this one is beautiful...$385.00or best offer- deesonic

Help! Is this easily fixed?
I bought a brand new bass (Fender American Original 50 Precision) and it arrived with the truss rod nut in this condition (see image). It came with an inspection sheet from the company, so either they caused the damage while setting up the bass, or Fender did (which I find less likely). I like...- bassbourne

Fender American Original - off-center truss rod?
Hello, So I'm very keen on these American Original basses and have been for a while. They are pretty much the only vintage, nitro, American Fender basses I can afford, which are some of the key features I'm after. Sadly there aren't many in my area that I can go and see in person and the few I...- bassbourne

Fender American Original Series Successor?
What will replace the Fender American Original series, and when? My guess: At NAMM, Fender will announce a new series of more accurately vintage spec'd instruments, copying the models of specific years. Effectively reverting the changes from the AVRI to the AO line. Apple did the same with...- antfarm

Fender Custom Shop Ability To Scale
Regarding the apparent discontinuation of Fender's American Original line, I keep reading on internet forums that Fender might not issue a replacement series, as "these models cut into Custom Shop sales".

P bass - American Original 60s or Vintera 50s?
Hi all, Trying to choose between these two p basses - American Original 60s and Vintera 50s. Absolutely love the vintage looks of the Vintera, as well as the aluminium pickguard and poly finish (prefer that to nitro). The reworked pickup is great too. On the other hand I do prefer rosewood...- k_hardy
