hey, jerk from ebay...

Hey, I have a Squier Jazz 5 that I paid $220 for brand new. I'm lovin it right now but if I ever decide to sell it I guess I can just take the neck off and "Fraudulize" it with a Fender decal, throw away the strings and tuners and neck plate and give it away free with the Fender squier body that I'll sell for $350.
hmmmm

Questions from other members : FENDER JAZZ BASS BODY NICE WOOD GRAIN, BRAND NEW, DUNCANS, NATURAL WOOD GRAIN

Q: It's a soft maple body. Invalid Link Removed
A: yes thank you we all know already, are you interested in buying it or are you like everyone else. Just no life, nothing to do but look at ebay. that's okay I guess better then watching TV. or do you do like me, watch TV and ebay. watch my next move. thank you Caroline

Q: I see your ad for this bass. After looking at Fender's website, I determined that this is a Squier Vintage Modified Jazz. The body is made from maple, not ash. Also, you said Leo used poly. Correction; he used nitrocelulose laquer. I can get the entire bass, brand new on Musicians Friend for $257.14, shipped. Is this auction an early April fools joke?
A: But you can't get the body for 249. delivered

Q: Hi Strat, That body is gorgeous! My only question is the wood - it's mentioned as ash, but are you certain it's not maple? Thanks so much!
A: no want to buy it

Q: Just a friendly heads up...it's a Soft Maple body. Just letting you know before someone calls you out on it. ;)
A: oh so now it's soft, never seen soft maple, does it have a soft V neck with it.. actually it did. would you all be interested in a soft V neck, Free with purchase, going up now.. no machines just a Fraudulent Make believe neck it has holes for both MIJ and Fender logo big back plate machines.. if I get 10 emailers who concour okay.. going out, it's Friday night, have a heavy date, he's about 350 pounds. use to be a Samaria Wrestler.. yes he wears a diaper to stay in shape. wackomoto... thank you Caroline

Q:
Not ash but maple.....
A: one more time, I'm going to burn it in the yard, not maple ash not ash swamp ash something from the swamp. Maple, it only weighs four pounds you know how much maple weighs.. where did you read this junk?

Q: Hi, just an FYI, the body wood is Maple, not Ash. The squier website clearly lists this. You should also put Squier in the title as this is a bit misleading. Thanks!
A: Everyone in the world who knows Fender knows it was built by the Fender Music Company and is a Fender, I'm not the only ad that puts Fender in and not squier. However, If you read all the contents of the add up top instead of rushing to the description and even in the description you will read under model.. SQUIER! thank you Caroline PEOPLE GET A LIFE!!! this is the 50 time I've been told it's maple, you mean maple like what they put on top of Les Pauls, isn't that better then SWAMP ASH which really isn't ASH. We ran out of Ash wood, we used it all up, and Alder, Cheap guitars are now made of Pine. they are Pinecasters.. keep up. I owned a music store for 40 years, you know how many musicians I talk to, how many articles I read. For crying out loud it's only a Cheap Squier Bass, with Duncan Design Pickups.. that sound pretty good I might add. What do you all want from your dollar. I'm trying to close my store and get out of dept. Give me a break will ya's. thank you Caroline

Q:
It's listed as a Fender, but you mention Squire pieces in the ad. It appears to be a Squire Vintage Modified body from the pictures. Those are maple, not ash. I'm just trying to be helpful if you had mistakenly listed it as something that it is not. If it actually is an ash body Fender, I am interested in it. Have a great day, -Mike.
A: thanks mike, maple is better no? squier is Fender yes? vintage is good no? it has duncan designs yes? you buy for 249 and have a maple vintage with ducan design pups, yes? thank you Caroline

Q: Are you sure this isn't a Squier Vintage Modified Body? Doesn't look like a Fender....
A: squiers are Fender's thank you Caroline

Victory oh sweet victory. TALKBASS MEMBERS WE POLICE THE INTERNET FOR YOUR SAFTEY.
 
Actually, I let her know what was up this morning in a nice kind of way. She responded with a long paragraph about how it was cool and you can't take everything so seriously in life. She took it so well she offered to sale me the bass.:(
 
She wrote this last night around 6 pm.

Dear atlanta!,

it's alright bro, they're just having fun, something we rarely have anymore these days. let them laugh it up, I'm not offended, in fact I almost pee'd my panties as well. I think most of them are 13 year old boys, judgeing by the content...harmless. Caroline
