it seems to me, as someone who plays a Jazz Bass when bassing, that the location of the f-hole on the J-Bass isn't exactly optimal...it looks like it'd snag on your sleeve. a lot. in general, the added f-holes seem a bit less ergonomic on the non-Tele models to me, but the J-Bass one seems particularly ill-placed.

To be fair, merchandising stupid on the Spiderman Mustang alone would make lawyers in the US cry.

Agreed. But no matter where the F-hole is, it'll look weird.
