I started in 1968 with a Fender Jazz sunburst, rosewood. I didn't like the sound of it for my rock band back then, so I traded it back to the store and I got a Fender Precision, sunburst, rosewood. I didn't like the wider neck, so I bought a Fender Jazz replacement neck, maple fretboard (with...

I agree. I believe it is the person playing, not the gear. When I was 19, way back LOL, I saw a really great guitar player back In Detroit, who played a cheap guitar with ratty old strings through a small tiny amp while he sat up bed. He was sick at the time and he still made that gear sing...

I agree. That is what I planned on doing. A Rondo P bass shorty.

no, it is in South Dakota. Nice catch on the $80 bass. :-)

I am waiting to hear from the seller on a used Jet Junior 1.

nice collection you have.

too late tonight. They are closed by now. Maybe try tomorrow.

I have had four GC's from diff states reply to me over the last few weeks. One was bad and it took them three days. The others were same day. We;ll see if they check their email tomorrow morning.

I hear ya. I just wrote a third email to the store and asked why someone couldn't take one minute to reply to me all day. :-)

Thank you. I understand. It is Guitar Center selling it. I am still waiting to hear from them. Amazing how I see store employees standing around doing nothing and nobody could answer an email in one whole day LOL I don't care about the brand or a decal as long as it is a good neck and no...
