Pretty sure someone makes a hardtail conversion for the Bass VI. You can find it somewhere in the Bass VI thread. You could always take the trem arm off
I've never had any issues with it. Mine stays in tune just fine. I got lucky though, I bought mine from the owner of the guitar store around here and he had lovingly set it up himself.

Yay! We might've convinced him guys! I think you're gonna like it.
Whoever said the Antigua Burst finish is ugly doesn't know what they're talking about LOL

Yeah, the Squier. Get a set of Circle K .102 or .106 strings and flip that bridge around and it should intonate and stay in tune pretty well. Then prepare yourself for a world of tones.
And if you ever decide you want a baritone, just get lighter strings and you've got one.

That antigua finish is a crime against god and man, and you're a bad person for thinking otherwise.

The Antigua would probably look okay with a black Pickguard but I don't know where you'd find the right one.
I want one though.
