Yeah I did. I usually check the site multiple times a day and as soon I saw it I called and told them i'd take it and I'd be there to pick it up the next day. When I got there to pick it up the guy at the counter said that he didn't even know they had it and if he would've, he would have bought it. Guess it was meant to be mine

Do you know who it was that was working at the counter? One of the Guitar players in my band works at Dave's and he told me he wanted a bass that looked like mine (I have a FrankenFender with a similar color scheme).
you as well as somme light overall sc uffing.
You should look into the Novus plastic polish system. Three liquid polish system, one for heavy scratches, one for medium to light scratches, one for a final gloss finish, each one used consecutively. They also have their own polishing cloths, which I recommend getting extras . I recently used it to restore a VM P pickguard that had a few pick marks on it as well as some overall light scuffing, and it worked great. Looked brand new after I was done.Thanks for the welcome and responses. I haven't tried tightening the peg yet. I didn't pick it up til late Friday and had an early gig on sat. Barely had time to get the flatwounds off, new rounds on and brush up on some songs
I think it was elliot. He was interested in a sea foam green strat body I traded in on the bass.
Ha! That's him! He was telling me about that body too. I'm pretty sure he bought it.
Welcome and congrats from another Minnesota Squier CV lover. Great, great basses!
Also for the record, I've had no problem with the Fender-branded P-pickguards at GC fitting my CVs.

You need to be sure it will fit. Squier and Fender guards are not quite the same.

Welcome very nice bass congrats and I love the bass world now because finding a great bass without spending a ton of money seems to be easier to do than ever before.
Congrats on a great bass! That Eden rig you've got there looks pretty nice as well.
Congratulations on an excellent bass at any price point. I've picked up 2 within the last 3 months . One in red, the other in blue. Red = flats, blue = rounds for now.
Great bass, especially for the price. I own the same one, and just set it up with flats the other day.
Thanks. I'm kinda finding that out too. I had a stingray 4 and I still have a bongo 5. Both are great but i'm starting to realize you can get something perfectly usable for not a lot of dough. I have a ibanez atk305, sx ursa 2, and now the CV. I've gigged with all of them except the sx. I'm looking forward to gigging with the sx just haven't done it yet.
Congrats and welcome! I have the same bass in sonic blue! I've played a long time and owned many basses,
but my CV is one of my all time favorites! I picked mine up used for 200.00, but it still had the plastic on the pickguard!
Are you sure their isn't a layer of plastic on yours? It took a little bit of work to peel it off, but after I got it off
the bass looked fantastic! If its off you can find pickguards that fit on the bay. Not very expensive either. Have fun!

Apparently, the ones in the link in that thread drop right on a Squier P-bass. Looks pretty nice too...

That vibration happens a lot on the A string cuz there is no string tree holding the A string down thus leaving an insufficient angle to the nut. Not enough tension on the string at the nut. If it's not your A string, then just ignore me. Haha. I have a couple Squiers that do that.
