Haha, yeah! She strictly deals with complaints about "roasted ash Fender bodies".

I'm guessing that she isn't on this forum, she would have been banned.


Whoever she is going out with is going to get an earful about bleeping bass players...

Ohhhh,man!! Now THAT'S the type of guy I would drive half-way across the country to kick his ass. First,I'd tell him (in detail) how I would hurt him. And then I would proceed to triangle choke his ass,and then I'd transition to an armbar and snap it at the elbow. Yeah,8+ years of jiu-jitsu would come in handy on him,even though I'm a FIRM believer in NOT USING IT in a streetfight.

This is what I had in mind: It happens at the :25 second mark. Hell,watch the whole thing. It's a thing of beauty,for sure.

It's a woman.
Does she look like she has been in musical instrument business for 40 years?



Not to bad for a 55+ year old woman.....

Her: but you can't get the body for 249. delivered

What? Her shipping makes the bass $268.95
You: I can get the body, neck, bridge, pickups, and some factory strings for $257.14.

But isn't a Squier a Fender?
