There is a Guitar Center kind of close to me. I have never been there though. I am kind of short of cash how much does it usually cost? I got the bass as an early X-mas present and currently have no dough.
I also want to get some nice flats for the bass. I am not digging the stock strings. Overall I am happy with the bass though, It looks really nice.. plus I figured it would need a setup and new strings anyways.
One more question for anyone who has a Rouge vb100. How do I get the styrophone crap off the bridge? It is kind of under it and it wont come off. It is bugging the hell out of me.

Mr. Mustard... If I were you I wouldn't take my bass to a guitar center for a setup, then again I wouldn't take it anywhere for a setup. But if you really don't feel comfortable attempting the setup yourself expect to pay somewhere in the area of $50-$60. When you change your strings do it one at a time. I change it in the order of E, G, A, D. There's about a million posts on this topic so if you're feeling studious, read, read, read, then personally setup!!
As far as the bridge goes, it sounds like the styrofoam is tucked underneath which would require you to remove the bridge (take all strings off, unscrew screws holding bridge in - careful, there may be some electronics underneath, screw bridge back on and put strings back on and then make setup adjustments)
