Squier basses ove Epiphone basses. Epiphone guitars over Squier guitars.

Mike Dirnt. Krist Novoselic. Mark Hoppus. Jeremy Davis. And for some odd reason....Sid Vicious.

Exactly! I stumbled across a old thread of someone posting his new Mark Hoppus bass, and he seemed real happy about it, and someone commented on how the bass sucks, then right after someone posted about how fake Blink's music is and how bad of a bassist Mark is. I don't care if you like...

I want that Mustang!!!

I've graduated today, and my parents are giving me 500 to spend freely, and I my first thought was to get a new bass. So I went to Long and McQuade (a Canadian music store) and tried out the Squier Vintage Modified bass and loved it! I also tried out some Classic Vibes that sounded better, but...
