|  | Registered User | | | | | P bass here also,... I really love the honey burst special Fender myself at GC. Especially at the price it is at this month. But just wondering if I should spend a couple hund. more and go for the standard..( and get a case) I love them too.

Step two is in the works - I found a guy in Peoria who's building some nice "tone ring" cabinets: http://rawoods.com/?page_id=173
I don't foresee any instrument purchases for 2013 because I commissioned my third Dingwall Super J near the end of last year. Cola burst over ash with matching headstock, five-string J/J with morado fretboard, no pick guard or control plate.

I've finally mastered the bass, does anyone know what those other 3 strings are for?

Either the Eastwood Sidejack VI, the Schecter Hellcat VI, or maybe, just MAYBE, the new Fender Pawn Shop Bass VI that was just announced. Probably not, though, given that it's already disappointing on paper. I am in a punk/post-punk 3-piece and we could use something to fatten out the sound--at least that's what I'm telling myself.

It's pretty sweet. First REAL fender I've owned and I'm pretty damn happy with it. The neck on my matt freeman squier has nicer fret ends, but has some raised frets at points creating buzz or dead notes in the higher register. The fender is totally consistent up the entire neck and plays wonderfully. |

|  | Don't want no treble. | | Join Date: May 2012 Location: Long Beach CA | | I too was in love with the honeyburst American Special but could not find one I liked in person. So, heaven forgive me, I decided to spring for this one of a kind reproduction of a vintage Fender! Incoming!!  And it looks like I had better sell some basses to keep the peace...

| | | | Right now I'm trying hard not to think about it but I'm GAS'ng for a Warwick Jonas Hellborg Signature. Keep trying to put it out of my mind and of course one comes up used for sale - damn. Wife would kill me. The bigger problem is trying to hide it in the mix. I don't have any black basses. |
