| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2012 Location: Sugar Land, TX | | WOAH! $450 American Standard Jazz Bass! So, I wanted to buy myself a new bass after 5 years of playing, so I decided to set my eyes on a Fender American Standard Jazz bass. I went to a few stores, tried some basses out and I really liked the Fender. So, I went on the internet and snooped around for a bit. Then on Musician's Friend I found the very same Jazz Bass I was playing at the store. But, for $450 dollars.  So yeah. I bought it. It happens to be that this particular finish on the bass was 900 dollars off compared to the rest, 100 dollars off.

I think they may have messed it up... Who knows though.

Oh wow, it really is on back order. Good thing I ordered last night. I'm glad everyone got a great deal on this thing though, haha. |

But yeah, we'll have to see what happens... |
