And, it should be noted that no one, not a single person in the audience wants or needs to see a guy without shoes. No one. There's just not an audience for a barefoot guy. You're there to entertain, not make the audience sick.

It's so sad that obesity has become so rampant here in the US that fit, healthy women are told to "put on some weight." It's not just on this forum; I see things like that all the time. No, she doesn't need to put on weight; remember the old days when 85 percent of the population wasn't fat?

I have both pups on full, tone on full. Just a bit of overdrive and I boost the mids quite a bit on my amp. Cuts through nicely, sounds great.

I can only offer my personal experience. I own a Squier VM Precision (the amber finish), and it is an excellent bass. No complaints at all. Last week I bought a new MIM Jazz, and it BLOWS the Squier away. Maybe I just got a good one, but everything about that MIM is just first rate. It's...

The endless bickering on these threads never fails to crack me up. Why must we label each other "fanboys" or "haters"? One's opinion of a musical instrument SHOULD be based on personal experience, and everyone has different experiences. My experience with a RIC was horrible. I bought one...

These threads always amuse me, in an ironic/sad kind of way. I guess we in the USA are so used to getting screwed that we view customer service DOING ITS JOB as some miraculous, fantastic occurrence. You know what would be a fantastic, miraculous occurrence? A 1500+ bass that didn't...

My personal experience is with P basses. My VM P (the amber maple one) arrived in flawless condition. It in ALL respects is as good or better than any MIM I've played. I haven't felt the need to upgrade the pickups. The neck is fantastic, and the thing stays in tune for days at a time...
