Id have to say this
calling the Jazz bass the Jazz bass. Im sure it will put off at least half of the 14-18 year old beginner bass buyers. (yes I do confess to thinking it was for jazz only, that was until I found TB)
can anyone else think of any?
oh btw. sorry if this has already been posted somewhere. my eyes are hurting after trying to go through 500 partial matches on the search menu

| | | Although the MM StingRay was inventive when introduced, the explanation for its poor g string performance from Ernie Ball is a bit of a goof. See link. http://www.ernieball.com/forums/show...0&postcount=13
I love the line, "IT is one of the things you get used to with a Sting Ray or not," when describing the noticeably weak g string output.
I'll take two...

I was also thinking boy bands, Cher, KoRn, that thingy that most tone-deaf pop singers today use to sound in tune... oh and Milli Vanilli. |

I don't see how the Dixie Chicks are a 'major blunder'. Stars say what they like; Slayer putting swatiskas on their guitars was a really dumb move, but they're still millionaires.
