So, I've wanted a Telecaster bass for awhile. No, not a Telebass, they have them, but a Telecaster guitar in bass form. They're out: http://www.notreble.com/buzz/2012/08...-bass-special/
Not sure if there is a thread or not already, so I made one.

1) Do a search first.
2) Learn to spell Squier correctly.

If I was the OP I would have felt a bit put down by this !
Regards the new `Squiers`, not my cup of tea but probably a nice bass .

My hat's off to them for coming up with still another "gotta get one" product for their mid priced Squier line. Just because there isn't a need for it doesn't stop them from trying to overwhelm it with desire, LOL.

TB has a trailer load of members with posts of at least 4 pages a day. Therefore, chances that someone has already posted something you would like to talk about are quite high.
As for the spelling, "Squier" is spellt incorrectly most of the time, even by people who own Squiers. I do not get this point either. No one would write "Fenda" or "Worwick", so I wonder what is so difficult about Squier.

| Actually it's "spelled" not "spellt".
