Matt Freeman Squier Sig!!!!!

Ha well if uve ever heard take this to your grave, u can't say there's some pop punk in there, sure not as hard as rancid's street punk feel, but I thought fob's first album was great,their other stuff not so great, but hey at least he got a sig out of it.

O and no s### I know this model isn't anything new,basically a cv p bass with a maple neck ......but.......this is more amazing to me because rancid is so far off the radar more so than blink 182 or fall out boy, I think its great that squier would deliver what fans would want .

True. And Freeman's lines were great. And FoB is sorta emo/pop-punk which is just like prog/thrash/metal (relative to my argument, not actual). I don't really like genres but let's get it right.
 
YES THIS WILL BE CV QUALITY!!!!

Well then thats pretty cool.

That makes this one of the only available squier P's with a maple fretboard, besides the wentzs and this is way cooler looking with no stupid bat inlays.

This will be one of the top of the line squiers and it having a maple board fills a gap in the squier line, I dont see this bass as pointless. There is a major lacking of maple fretboarded squiers.

It also fills some voids I have heard from CV owners alot dont like the fiesta and sonic P's and were wanting a maple fretboard option.

I am stoked on it, are they available yet?
 
The dude is excited that one of his heroes got a sig...which is great...why do so many people feel the need to 'school' everyone as often as possible?
Cause most people generally can't stand to see anyone else happy, for even a second. :eyebrow::scowl:

Most don't know enough to "school" anyone, but they're gonna try!:spit:

Freeman is the reason that I'm playing bass. F*** all else, he's finally getting some credit. That's a good thing in my book. Oh yeah, I'm gonna want one. Never wanted a sig bass before, but I'm gonna think hard about getting one of these and keeping it a stock P. My HW1 is already my signature bass. Why not sport someone else's axe (or the outsourced watered down replica of it) out of respect every once in a while?
 
So what if Fender is releasing "yet another" P-Bass. The fact that they're doing more than plumbing the stadium rock crowd, or the funk wanksters who sound like they have eight thumbs for artists is a welcome change. Operation Ivy and Rancid may not be your particular taste in music, but you cannot listen to a song like "Ruby Soho" or "Time Bomb" and tell me that Freeman doesn't have chops.

It's refreshing that Fender is dipping into slightly less mainstream waters to find artists to keep the heart beating.

(before any of you jump on me, I own three Bela Fleck albums and a Weather Report album as well. Wanking has it's place. :D)
