The connection with your kids is priceless, and those are my 2 faves.

Exactly, that makes them the most special.

Grumpy has to stay though, seems "morning dad" earned that nickname some time ago.

Hands down my favorite color scheme on mustangs and pretty much any bass.

I believe Guitar ReRanch sells that colour in a spray can that you could paint the headstock with.

So back around the end of October I was in a discussion with my TB friend @dalkowski about a Squier Competition Mustang that was in the classifieds. We were both thinking about should we/shouldn't we buy it. He went for it, a smooth transaction and life went on.

But that inspired me, and my Squier Competition Mustang came in today. But where he got the blue with white stripes I really wanted the orange with red stripes. Put some flats on it, strap locks, and changed the knobs from black to red. It plays very nice and I didn't have to mess with the setup at all. I bought it on presale from CME. I really wish it had a matching headstock though. And I could not get a set of speed knobs on the pots either, have those on the rest and really like them.

I did shoot a video of the unboxing in case of damage, but all was fine. It was well packed, safe and sound.

The new bass.
