I will never own a .....................................

Although I have respect for them and those who ride, I don't see myself owning a motorcycle... Probably a horse too; I'm a little intimidated they're big when you're up close.

Unless I find myself in a job where I need one, I don't think I will own a truck.

I've never done a drug or smoked in my life and see no reason to start.

I'm a clumsy person, so I think it's best for everyone if I do not own a gun or weapon of any type.
 
I'm trying really hard to like you, but this kind of stuff makes it difficult. :D

But...But...’politely decline’ is not the same thing as...oh, I dunno...impugning the genius of The Ol’ Ball Coach...or the faith of #15 (have you seen a picture of his fiancée?!!:woot: good gawd! Angels Are Real...at least in his world!!:thumbsup:)

We have 4 good friends who are UF fans. Two of them are Alums. Believe me when I tell ya...there’s a BIG difference between a fan and an alum!:roflmao:

I used to talk a lotta poopie with them, but that was back when I was immature...like 45 minutes ago. :thumbsup:
 
Sorry for the hijsck but I’ve gotta ask - because I started a thread on this a few months back - why? I think a zero fret makes a lot of sense, but they’re not very plentiful or, evidently, popular. I’ve never played one but I don’t know why one would not want to ever own one.
Many years ago I had a Bass with Zero fret. It had all kinds of problems and a Well respected Luthier/Tech told me that only Cheap basses used Zero Fret.
So I checked out every Zero fret bass I could find and realized he was right.
At the time that's just the way it was.

Since then some really great builders have started using the Zero Fret but the damage has already been done for me.
I just look right over them and always will.
It's kind of a shame because I have passed on many otherwise nice basses.

Nothing cheap about these...
