    let me get this straight

    Why not allow the "whats it worth" unless you're a supporting member? Is it too much to ask for help from people with a knowledge of bass amplification in the hopes of not getting ripped off by some jackass on craigslist? I'm not advertising anything for myself or anyone else. Nor was I trying...

    please tell me i don't need a RIC

    Man, I always wanted one. Until I realized how much it cost for a bass with that many flaws that had had no significant improvements since its inception. (ever set the intonation on a Ric?)

    My "Fender" horror story, and why YOU should think twice about buying a new "Fender"

    does any high end jazz sound like the vm squier jazz?

    Man some people are easily offended. Maybe they should have just bought the Squier and used the money they saved on a sense of humor.

    does any high end jazz sound like the vm squier jazz?

    Yeah. Its a shame that something affordable has comparable tone to an overpriced Fender copy.

    Jazz Bass Build

    If that works why not pass off the bass as a J-Style?
