    I have an actual Fleabass in my hands and...

    Once again, even if it is made in China, that is the beauty of America. You can sell just about whatever you want for any reason you want. Artist series basses are always about the artist. You pay for the name. Flea never released a PSA stating that this is the best, cheapest bass you can...

    I have an actual Fleabass in my hands and...

    there are ups and downs. I want to mention, that i wasn't intending to call anyone a bass snob, but it felt like a little too much criticism for one fleabass review. I agree with you guys overall, and enjoy high and low end basses... and flea's price tag is a bit high, but then again, its...

    I have an actual Fleabass in my hands and...

    the Fleabass looks pretty good; then again, I never really care that much about the finish. I care about the sound. a few scratches never make any difference... Reading this thread made me feel like I was entering into a world of bass-snobness. It made me feel dirty. I'd love to get one of...

    Do I need my head checked? (Read; Why do you play?)

    no, you arn't crazy. It just sounds like you and your guitar player have different ideals. I practice all the time, and grew up on jazz, so i am always wanting to book gigs, and "wing" new jazz charts on the fly and so on... I relate to your perspective. It sounds like your guitar player...

    Another Lame Craigslist Bassist Wanted

    So are these guys delusional? Yes, probably, but i will admit, I definitely appreciate the honesty in the add. I like the extreme detail of their quant, elegant appeal. Although mis-spelling words is an "in" thing right now, it doesn't make for good advertising. The "...Don't be over thirty...

    Got the Bassman 250/210... you'll kill me when you hear the price

    i just bought a fender bassman 100 (older one, 15" speaker) for a measly $95! It's in practically new condition, this guy just diddnt use it, and i'll admit, its not mind blowing compared to my GK 4x10 setup, but as a more logical amp its great! As for tone, i havent messed with it too much...
