The Aeon line of basses are made from Fender licensed parts assembled to my quality standards. While anyone can buy Fender-licensed parts and assemble them, mine are different because of the various improvments that are implemented. In the end, you end up with a bass that you'd pay hundreds of dollars to a guitar tech to do all these things. The value is in the details.
