    Am I overreacting?(Thinking about quiting)

    Maybe a good talking in order, if nothing changes then **** em and quit.. There's probably a good reason they've been playing for 10+ years and still only play in a cover band, and want to take control and ******** around.... Join/start a band with original music

    Fender Aerodyne Jazz bought in Naples, FL about 6-8 years ago?

    Man that's just ridiculous, it just goes to show how hard it is to trust people. It was definitely a huge mistake on your part, and im sure you've learned from it. Sucks because those aerodyne basses are nice
