    Are higher priced Fenders really worth it?

    NOTHING beats an American Fender...

    i fell in love with this PJ bass...

    It comes up as a SDOTD quite often for about $100 bucks off. Looks great, never played one yet...but it's still a Mexi! Lol

    Buyer wants to return non-defective bass as "defective"

    "the strings don't vibrate and neck and saddles need adjustment just to play. "***?!?! Needs a setup! Which is NOT included, not even on a $10,000 Les Paul! What a tool. Dude, if all this has been through the eBay email system, dude, ITS STRAIGHT UP BLACKMAIL! You can't allow this to happen...

    Buyer wants to return non-defective bass as "defective"

    Man, I read this again, and I'm still steaming for you bro! They're trying to blackmail you for extra stuff, jaded threats, and even the gall for help in finding another bass so he can return this one?!?! 1. Setups DO NOT come with a guitar purchase. I expect to setup a BRAND NEW Rick or Fender...

    shag this guy AND his bastard church. Looks like they have buyers remorse, and also that someone else is pulling this guys strings. Offer NOTHING. Deal is done and over with. Don't even offer to work with ******** like this, they're just trying to get as much as they can from you. Your emails...

    NAD, New Guy, and a DEAL ALERT: Ampeg PF800 Mint Open Box $329.97

    Ha! I've actually been playing around with the Ric O Sound on my 4003w as well with this setup! Never used it before, as imho, it's not really needed, and way too much gear is needed to use it, basically I don't think it's a practical thing. But it is fun to play around with at the house! I'm...

    NAD, New Guy, and a DEAL ALERT: Ampeg PF800 Mint Open Box $329.97

    So...for everyone that got one, what's your overall reaction and feelings? Personally, I think it's a great lil amp, that def needs to be tweaked to get the tone you're after. As someone said, even at 800 watts, def not like a teeth rattling 300 watt SVT. But, by using it the way it's been...

    What’s your most expensive piece of gear?

    Plus, I thought this was TalkBass, not Talk Piano/etc! Lol

    What’s your most expensive piece of gear?

    Nothing too crazy, but I spent $2,200 or $2,300 on my Gibson 120th anniversary Thunderbird bass. My Rickenbacker 4003w was over 2 grand as well. Still can't beat the trusty ol' Fender jazz though! Best $1,600 bucks you could ever spend. Gotta have a spare too! Lol

    Dude, please tell me how you can give an opinion or review, without actually trying it out? That's like me telling you all about how it is to drive a Ferrari, even though I've never even stood next to one. And as far as the bedroom comment, this is the perfect post. The Micro-VR is AWESOME at...

    Suggestions for a bass amp : Fender Rumble 100 ? 200 ? Ampeg MICRO-VR Combo ? Else ?

    Exactly, you've never played any higher end Ampeg models, therefore, you can't really say a thing about them. As a bass player, it's kind of amusing you've never even tried one, as Ampeg is THE 1st name in bass amplification, and has been for years. I kinda feel sorry for you in the sense that...
