I love the 22 frets on this one. 22 fret basses seems to be rare with Fender for a while now. It kind of reminds me of the Victor Bailey models just with paint. MonoNeon is a heck of a talent.
Lol , Custom Made Headstock Socks. Love how it was necessary to put a sales approach into the video, cause MonoNeon simply isn‘t the person to sell, but to play it!
Cool to see MonoNeon get a signature model, but it was a bit odd switching between his demo, and the Fender employees very *vanilla* demo-ing and talk track. And why not show the stickers and sock?
I do really love the tone and sounds that are coming from this monster bass. Fender definitely has been a staple for bass guitars and it's sound is still kicking in 2022. I hope to own this one!!!!
I love the sheer contrast between the very corporate mustache guy/ the vanilla bass playing of the afro guy, with mononeon's personality and monster bass playing.
When you're coming from playing the guitar its awesome because the narrow string spacing of a 5-string is more what you are familiar with. You can also play funk and death metal without restringing the instrument :)
Why won't you make a left-handed orientation for left-handed players? I would buy it if it were available. I currently play left-handed 5 string Ibanez but would love to buy a Fender 5 string left-handed bass!
Fender, this is a Roscoe Beck without the switches! Why you've never reissued a bass that is widely accepted to be the best five string bass that you've EVER made is a complete mystery. I had one of the blue ones, and thought I moved it on because the string spacing was a bit too much for me, I've incorporated the switching options from the RBV into every bass I've had since, and my two main basses now have it. You need to reissue the Roscoe Beck.
agreed on the RBV, but just demoed one of these and it’s not the same, other than the concept of the pickups (tho these are more modern voicing) and the 34” scale/body shape…this is active, with very different control layout
@@bassomatic64 How is it physically? It can't be too far away from the RBV, and if the pickups are tappable you'd be able to convert one pretty easily.
Last time I checked he was with Status, Alembic, maybe dean and warwick. I don’t think he’ll be getting a fender signature also considering that he isn’t alive.
@@ethanpeed being alive isnt a relevant factor, he used fenders alot in his career no reason why fender hasnt done a signature model of his Frankenstein for example
Hi there. I’m hoping this reaches someone with time to help. My Fender acoustic (made in Indonesia and quite old)was damaged in flood water. It cleaned up ok. need to re-fix the nut and have bees waked the fretboard. The neck is still straight and all the tuners work but some f the laminate on the back was cracked and split with pieces missing and I’d like to repair it. I’m in a remote location with no professional assistance available so need to do this myself plus I like the guitar which was a present from my dad and will one day go to my daughter. So any guidance in bringing this back to a presentable condition is greatly appreciated. I can send pix if you have an email! Thanks 🌞
Excuse me, I already know he uses normal bass while he is left handed, (like Jimi Hendrix) but IS HE PLAYING THAT WITHOUT EVEN STRINGING REVERSE ????? 😬
@@jas_bataille literally anyone not willing to call out the stupidness of this is just weak and going with the crowd just because. Dudes a clown and the bass looks dumb. Guarantee they sell next to none of them.
I want the headstock socks .
And behind it , it says Lakland, lol.
😂
Fender is like bimmer, you gotta pay for the options or your gear comes naked
If there's one bassist who deserves a signature bass, it is Mononeon! His playing is unreal! Congrats!
Can't stop rewatching Mono's delivery of "50%". He says it like it's a selling point and I love it.
I'm a punk rock type of bass player but even I know Mono deserves this without a doubt .

MonoNeon's a great player, and I absolutely love the color and the block inlays!!
Cool to see MonoNeon get a signature model, but it was a bit odd switching between his demo, and the Fender employees very *vanilla* demo-ing and talk track. And why not show the stickers and sock?
There's another video that is pure unadultered mono. Presentation reminds me of adult swim which is cool
Mononeon is one of the best and not just best bassists but best musicians.
What a beautiful mess of skill, art and expression. Love it
Congrats to MonoNeon!!!Well-deserved.
The tone is awesome.
That bass is nice! I really liked the tone when set to both pickups!
where is the sock???? you need to add the sock fender
I have seen people play their guitar flipped, but with strings reversed. Never seen a person flip his guitar without reversing the strings, how unique
As a bass player of less than a year, when I found out this was a thing, my mind was blown!!😂
@@aoa3163 dude i've been playing for 13 years and my mind is fucced. first time i see someone play like this
Not super uncommon among bass players in the funk scene actually
Or in church bands
both pickups sound AWESOME!!!
MonoNeon was dipped in Funk and then sent to earth !
I do really love the tone and sounds that are coming from this monster bass. Fender definitely has been a staple for bass guitars and it's sound is still kicking in 2022. I hope to own this one!!!!
At last! Someone noticed the real master! He deserved it badly! We love Mono :)
Fantastic. I wish I was bass player enough (and had enough dough) to justify this.
It's like a cool cartoon came to life with insane bass skills.
Big Ups 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wow what a Awesome looking Jazz Bass also HH too nice and 22 FRETS!? That's Badass
I love the sheer contrast between the very corporate mustache guy/ the vanilla bass playing of the afro guy, with mononeon's personality and monster bass playing.
Well deserved and a fab looking bass. Fender on the pulse with this one
MonoNeons the man! That’s an awesome bass and loved that demo!
Congratulations Mononeon!!!!
I know I'm late to the party but congrats Mono! Tremendous talent and soul. I strive to be as true in my playing as you are in yours.
Beautiful color. Playing upside down makes it even more cool. 👍
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}
and ooo wee yeah..!!!...smoooooth..!!
The New Bop Gun!!!! JUST GOT MINE!!! LOVE IT!!!!
Damn! It sounds good. Mononeon is just out of this world.
that is one cool looking bass, I am a guitar player and this made me really want one of these.. Those pickups sound so good.
Nobody needs a 5 string ba… 😍🎸
I like your style! Thundercat's 'them changes' is hard to play on a four though...
Five string string sets costing more though now.
When you're coming from playing the guitar its awesome because the narrow string spacing of a 5-string is more what you are familiar with. You can also play funk and death metal without restringing the instrument :)
Mononeon is right handed but plays left handed because he can 😌
Why won't you make a left-handed orientation for left-handed players? I would buy it if it were available. I currently play left-handed 5 string Ibanez but would love to buy a Fender 5 string left-handed bass!

This will be one of those basses people remember wayyyyy down the line.
Super cool model!
This is my next bass
Check out 3:27 with subs/closed captions.
Mononeon is clearly from another planet.
This bassplayer who handle the instrument to the right side is wearing my hair.
Fender if you guys doesn’t put out a lefty version of this Bass GUITAR I’M GOING SAY THIS ,OFF WITH YOUR HEADS 😀, we need a lefty version please🙏🏾
yesss, Mono Neon is a absolute legend!
Could you guys make other color options please
It's time for Funk Rock 💛🧡❤️
I can't find anything from Fender on where this bass is made. Looks great, though!
Same here. They usually make it really plain if an instrument is made in the US, so I'm thinking it's probably Mexican. -Kind of pricey for MIM bass.
It's made in Mexico
So cool💚🧡 truly an out of this world Artist 💙💯🔥
We agree!
mononeon farts are finally officially licensed by fender! bout time!
This just looks so cool!
Ooof I wanted a Warwick but this color scheme is gettin me
Great player! Looks like a great bass too!
I've always wanted to play bass in a construction zone and now I can.
Lol, Underrated
RIP Sandberg basses
He's the man 😌❤🔥
Hell yeah those colors
Roscoe Beck pickups.....?
I love it
I love it !
What was that groove played at the end of the video, by the Fender employee, not Mononeon?
That’s a FUNKEY way to play lol (lefty on a righty 🤯) wish I could play that way playing the regular way 😭
Throwing in a pair of socks. Nice! 🙂
Being me is working out well for him
That's some spicy bass
Good jam grooving.
Woww awesome bass 🔥
Congrats man ...
What song did they play at 4:58 please?
Yepp plz
Entwistle signature when? He deserves one more than any other bass player
Last time I checked he was with Status, Alembic, maybe dean and warwick. I don’t think he’ll be getting a fender signature also considering that he isn’t alive.
@@ethanpeed being alive isnt a relevant factor, he used fenders alot in his career no reason why fender hasnt done a signature model of his Frankenstein for example
Can anyone please tell me the name of the song ... The bass line played at the end of the video
Where can I buy the socks？
Nice & w room to expound 🎃
Wonder where it's made? Mexico, Japan or?
Mexico
When the matching Mono Neon Fender guitar(s) drop? Invert the colors? Get on that asap- Don’t act like you don’t sleepin’ on his guitar skillzzzzzz😴
Love this guy!
that is so cool
Sold.
Will this bass be good for gospel and R&B music?
It'll be good for anything I'd imagine.
That’s the type of music Mono started out playing. So I’m sure he wanted it to be capable of doing so
WOW!
Can fender just make a left handed? I don’t get what’s so hard! It won’t kill anyone!
He doesn't want one. He's always used right handed basses.
Nice.
MONO 🔥🤘
i like how when u turn on the subtitles it says "upbeat guitar music"
nice, but is the same of my Modern PLAYER V
Make it in 4 string and ill buy it
Shook his hand once after a show…ain’t been able to wash the FUNK off it since!…
WHERE
IS
THE
SOCK
How about one of those without being Florescent Yellow and Orange??? 🤔
Cool pickups.
anyone buy moonbass neon? how is it?

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
🙏🙏🙏
did he go to Berklee?
He did, briefly!
I was texting a friend about this bass and according to autocorrect it has two hamburger pickups.
The white guy looks like if Eddy Burback grew out his hair
I want that in another color. I'm just not cool enough to pull that off.
What if I told you that playing this bass would make you cool enough?
Am I the only one who thinks that the tone was garbage when Mononeon played the bass? 😂 Digged the tone when the Fender employee played it, though.
I also think like you. The sound sucks played by neon mono. Much better than the other guy's
That's one quirky dude!
Someone should play All About That Bass on bass!
Excuse me, I already know he uses normal bass while he is left handed, (like Jimi Hendrix) but IS HE PLAYING THAT WITHOUT EVEN STRINGING REVERSE ????? 😬
Ronald McDonald wants his bass back! 🍔🍟
I think the only clown in this room is you. You just sort of attacked the Batman of Bass™
@@jas_bataille literally anyone not willing to call out the stupidness of this is just weak and going with the crowd just because. Dudes a clown and the bass looks dumb. Guarantee they sell next to none of them.
It's construction vests not McDonald's
You guys couldn't have bothered to make Mono a left handed bass? Jfc
why so many dislikes lol
