NBD in 3... 2...

[whero]

I've been thinking about getting a fretless for a while now. At the start of this year, I decided it was finally time. So I've been saving for a couple of months, and today I bought...

...a Squier Vintage Modified 70s Jazz Bass V. The clear finish with black block markers and binding. In mint condition. Not a fretless.

Just saw it, loved it, pulled the trigger. Now I have to start saving for a fretless again. God, I'm hopeless.

So, what is the problem? I don't understand. Next year it'll be: "I want a Ric. I've been saving up for ten months. Yesterday I saw this Stingray in the shop and plugged it in just to try it out..." See? It never ends.

You can also save up for a fretless neck to swap out onto that body, be it AllParts, Mighty Mite, or Warmoth…
Cheaper than a whole 'nother bass.

True, much cheaper, but it'll be one bass less.
