Only 4 purchases this year and they all fall under best. American standard P bass. 2012 and 2013 Select Jazz basses. And (still musical but not a bass) Taylor 314c Grand Auditorium Guitar. There is no worst in this lot.

And if I'm not mistaken $350 is the normal squier price

Well it started with: 2013 American Standard P bass 2012 Select Jazz passive 2013 Select Jazz active GAS is cured

Yeah it's the annual Christmas package.

Those would be a sweet pair to play with. Have a good show.

Well the fender haters are going to have a cow and it's been said before here on TB, but Leo got it right the first time. The instrument in all its variations over the years still does what it's meant to do, be it active, passive, precision, jazz, 5 string, 6 string, lightweight, etc. others...

Probably the best answer to this guestion I've seen. Yes I like a natural well played look. I'd wager Not too many of us are going to have one that long to get that look.

Looking at the pics before I'd say 2014 has been good to all of us. And I liked my 2012 Select jazz so much, I bought the active 2013 version last week. Brand new at $1299.00 I couldn't pass it up.

Sweet. Enjoy and play the hell out of it.

And if your buying sight unseen fear not, I bought my new baby off eBay from the bass place. It came brand new in the fender box and ready to roll. And at a ridiculous 1299.00. That's a thousand off retail and the same price as an American standard. I couldn't pass it up. A Select for...
