Graphite neck query for Derek

Derek,

Following the release of the NAMM bass, do you know if Ernie Ball would consider making a graphite neck bass (a la Cutlass) on permanent production ?


Cheers, K
 
Good question. I am not sure if we would. We made 100 anniversary Namm basses and those were well received, however I am not sure if there is enough demand to warrant a full production model.

I would definitely order one (or 2). There's probably a market there.

There's no chance you could make some discreet enqueries at EB HQ ?

Cheers, K
 
I would say its too soon. We just built the Namm basses a couple of years ago. I think there is still some hanging in shops around the world. A more likely scenario would be a limited edition version again, but we would wait a while to do that.

Maybe a Cutlass reissue?
 
Mwahahaha!! Please don't forget the hard-of-cash! A Cutlass Reissue SUB!!! Yes! :D
