Put the money in an envelope and bury it in your back yard. In 2 weeks check the spot where you buried the money and the bass will be there while the money will not.



Or...Paypal. Y'know..whatever's good for you.

I believe that robot birthdays are actually referred to as "builddays."

:lol:

Thanks! :bob:

And thanks to everyone for all the advice. I'll be checking out more basses ASAP, but it might be a while. And I may follow MM's advice and wait until the day after Thanksgiving day to buy one. So don't anyone freak out if I don't post updates very soon. :eek:

No worries - we were just giving you a hard time! Definitely wait for the sales - discretion being the better part of valor and all that.

Oh, and happy belated birthday!

OH. MY GOD. please forget I posted that fucking starter pack video and said" I think you know what to do" I meant to post this video, I don't know how I fucked that up :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

Th Fender Jazz bass sounds quite different from the Squier but the Squier P bass is uncannily close to the Fender.

No worries.

And this evening I tried a bunch of budget basses and am liking a Pevey Forum Plus (P-Bass style), but want to try out a Squire P-Bass I heard about at another store. :joy: :omg:

:omg: :omg: :omg: :omg: :omg:


A Peavey Forum Plus. Active with a nice P-Bass sound, plus J-Bass pickup. Almost got a Squire P-Bass but this had a thinner neck and felt better and sounded better to me. :thumb: :thumb:

Thx for the help, everyone! :animal:
