    Why so much negativity towards Fender?

    There is a loud minority on any subject.

    Problems with short scale basses?

    BTW...avoid GHS short scale Brights. These are the worse sounding strings every to be stretched across some pickups.

    Problems with short scale basses?

    I'd be skeptical and probably fire a bass teacher that made such a statement as there probably are other flaws in their teaching philosophy.

    Me: The wannabe bass player.

    I've never been able to get neck action lower on any of the basses I've owned to match that of my SR. Great playing and sounding bass.

    Playing outside in the cold: Can it do any harm?

    Who in their right mind would schedule an outside event in that temperature? Must be an ice carving or snowman building event :-) Any instrument, not just the bass, will have problems.

    So, Danelectro owners....

    Duct tape it on, cover the bass with decals, add a ramp....then you'll wish it was back original. I'd leave it alone.

    I can't play my bass anymore, convince me?

    Having owned a Ric before......I can say I love the way they play and sound. However, they are way overpriced now and IMO not worth the premium. Much like some of the more expensive Fenders.

    My next bass purchase will be the CV P bass.

    Im gonna make a clear bass guitar

    Hmmmmmm unless you just need something to do.......I'd buy one and a wheelbarrow to carry it around in. ;)

    Smells Like Rickenbacker

    Yes I had one and recall that smell. Sorta a woodsy, furniture polish, car polish, waxy smell. Whatever that is!

    Jazz Bass Pickup Question

    If your intent is to get it sounding like a Fender Jazz, you'd also have to install Jazz wiring harness and pots. Even with that it wouldn't mimic the Jazz sound completely. IMO
