    ID This Bass

    Thanks, all. For $50 should I pull the trigger and make it a project bass? I like the body style and have been itching to do a build.

    +1 get the free version and buy a couple bass amp add-ons. I really like this thing, but make sure you get it on sale somewhere. IE a GC sale. It can be fun if you play around with it enough!:bassist:
