Save a bass....

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm sure you've all seen the humorous shirts that say something like "Save a drum, bang a drummer!" or even "Save a guitar, lick a guitarist!"

Well, having never seen one for us bass players, I was thinking something along the lines of "Save a bass, slap a bassist!"

What do you think?

save a bass... for only 30 cents a day.. make a difference in the life of a bass like little katie here... the save bass foundation has made it possible for her to go to school and have clean water to drink, as well as sturdy shoes to wear...
