    I need your opinion: Custom Shop '59 Precision Bass vs American Vintage II 1960 Precision Bass?

    I’ve had Custom Shop basses that were dogs and some amazing. My number one player today is an AV2 Precision. They all vary to an extent.

    What is the best bass you’ve ever played?

    Carlo Robelli Precision bass that I bought in SamAsh back in 1976. Wasn’t a great instrument but was my best because it was my first. And here I am 50 years later….

    NBD: Fender Precision

    I have the same exact bass and it is my number one. TheseAV2 basses are pretty amazing.

    What bass do you regret not buying when you had the chance to when it was available?

    Chris Squire Rick for 1/4 of what they go for now…if you can find one for sale. And a Musicman Stingray in the window of Monte Bros. Music, Dobbs Ferry, NY in 1977 for $320.

    God Only Knows- perhaps the most beautiful song ever recorded. Both to the ears and to the soul. My personal opinion. Thank you Brian

    Why is there a flag on my avatar in the messages?

    Does the American flag offend you? Perhaps an issue for our international brothers but should not be for an American

    USA Geddy Pickguard Travails

    I bought a tortoise pickguard for a reissue’74 Jazz from WD. It was cut exactly like yours. Exactly. Bad pattern they are working from? It bothered me that a nearly $70 piece of plastic was flawed. I reached out to WD and they told me where to go.
