    2015 Fender Bass in a Safe Case?

    First let me say I rarely do this sort of thing but this message is meant for all those Fender bass players out there who play finger style exclusively or both finger and pick style like myself. I can't believe Fender advertises the model #0996175106 bass case as safe for your instrument. An...
