There is a TV show in the UK called Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway and a band called The Vamps played out the show last night. Their bass player was using what appeared to be an SR4H with a Fodera style yin-yang paint job. It also has white front facing LED's on the fretboard.

It took me back a moment or two as I was struggling to compute what my eyes were seeing.

Is this something EB made for him, or is it a custom job he has had done on an existing bass.

I was under the impression that EB didn't do custom spec for anyone, although it has been argued elsewhere that this is not the case.

The argument could resolve either way .... but
the real take away is: Ain't gonna do it for you.
So it's really kinda sorta rhetorical at best :-/

OTOH if it's a third party custom mod, I doubt
that Fodera would sue if you mod yours to be
the same as the one you saw on the toob.

EBMM has made one offs for many bass players. What they haven't done is make sig models.
