    Why does fender put the logo in the wrong place on Vintera 50s Precision?

    It was USA Vintage for half of that, then American Vintage the other half. The 62 strat changed a bit on the american vintage name change (different pickups). Maybe the bass had changes too?

    Fender leak - American Vintage Series II is coming?

    I'm sure that'll be the price next year with the annual price increases. You can guesstimate these AVRI IIs will be close in price to the George Harrison tele.

    2012 Fender Precision MIM

    2012/2013 was some kinda year for the MIM plant. They put out so many unique models (pawn shops, road worns, dimension bass, etc.) Fender was experimenting like crazy. 2012/2013 MIM have the best lake placid blue and CAR all metallic goodness!

    Our Band is doing everything wrong. Should I try to fix it or just quit?

    Sounds like a marriage. They've been a local band for 18 years! Obviously the BL is the outgoing person of the group working the crowd. And they've been around long enough and so confident enough, that they take live requests from the crowd? If you are somehow still in your 30s, jettison. You...

    is it worth buying a 5 strings ?

    Welp to each their own. My Squier Precision Bass Special was a dog. I spose spending 10x gets a better lighter bass for the extra 4 notes.
