What recent news is that?

I have this same bass in the same finish (the only one that looks good IMO.) Nice looking guitar! My only disagreement is the vintage style bridge that came stock on mine certainly doesn't suck; ) how much of an upgrade did u find the badass bridge to be? GL

My deepest sympathy for you and your family I can only express as sincerely as possible thru words. I send a multitude of prayers your way. May the God of all (including bass) carry you through some of the most difficult times in your life. Being one who doesn't believe in coincidence, I ask you...

I just ordered a MIM Deluxe P-Bass Special, mostly because I missed the growl of a precision and I love the Mexican actives Fender puts out. Maybe it's just me, but it seems like Fender puts a little extra care into these basses due to their different electronics (whoa! almost said "upgraded...

+ 1 on the MusicMan thing.. Beautifully built, my MM Sterling was my main bass for years and miss it dearly.

Awesome purchase. Jazz basses are better though :p you made the right choice!

Got rid of a 410HLF I had for a few years. VERY bass heavy.. Yes pretty muddy. Try one out and crank it before you buy. Not for everyone.

Check out some Hal Leonard transitions of Count Bassie tunes. Those were some of my favorite learning to play swing, jazz, blues.

Buy one and never look back. I bought the four string version from my local palm beach GC. I came from an EBMM Sterling that was my main bass for about six years. That guitar had an awesome preamp and was very HOT. Loud as hell. Fast playing bass that begged to be slapped... My MIM deluxe...

Im also GASing hard for an SR506. Im currently a Fender man comfortably slapping and rocking out on active jazz basses and finding it very easy to slide my right hand down, kill the treble and THUMP out that Ampeg into reggae mode. Enough! Business calls me towards an R&b/hip-hop project. I...

Stage presence is key. No one came to see u stand in one spot. Own your side of the stage; even with a few missed notes, confidence will carry your performance much farther than hitting everything perfect and being too timid to perform. Energy, movement, and crowd interaction.

She got the Cort so you're a little too late lol. Anyway Joe I enjoyed reading your profile a few, years back, wish I still had the issue but I remember looking up your music and I dug the groove. It had a punk feel right? To the Dad- what kind of bass combo is that?

That white is absolutely beautiful! My next bass will be an American active deluxe jazz in that white. Id also like a deluxe pbass special but Id like to just have a MIM. Thanks for correcting me on the scale of my old EBMM Sterling. What I meant was it had a smaller profile body :) Anyone...

At one point were you featured in bass player mag??

Never too late for a new one! ;) im sure you could go used for cheap.. I paid $750 new for mine. Anyway how was the tension and sustain on that low B? The deluxe V is one of the basses I've been meaning to play.
