My bass VI is stock right now, but I just got my pickups from curtis. Also have a staytrem bridge and mastery vibrato.

Absolutely! I would like to get a pickguard made because it looks like there will be a bit of a gap, lengthwise, on the stock one.

That's exactly how I use it.

Yeah the Schecter would be the perfect fit for your needs. No trem to worry about as well.

Is the Fender worth it, or should I just go for the Squire? I can't believe I haven't placed my order yet. I'm still not sure about the color body or pickguard either... :facepalm:

I was thinking black Squire with red tortoise, then maybe re-finish the body sherwood green if I get bored of the look. :snax:

I like the switching options on the Squier more. And the fender doesn't have the strangle switch. However, I think the Squier needs more love to get it in prime working order. With all the upgrades I have planned (new pick guard, new bridge, possible new trem) its gonna end up being the same price as the pawnshop version probably.

Yes, I'm already planning upgrades for a guitar I don't own.

I'm thinking of the exact same upgrades for the Squire, dude. :lol:

And strings of course...Maybe change the nut too, if it's terrible. I'm going to have to order the VI online, so I won't get to check it prior to getting it. :grumpy:

Stores don't open for another 2 days, so that will leave me with some time to think.
