New Bass/New Member Day

Hey everyone!

Long time lurker, first time poster here. I spend many a lunch hour at work perusing these forums, and wanted to finally make this relationship official. And I felt the best way to do that is to start out with a NBD post.

I was cruising the local Craigslist, when I saw this bass. Dude bought it a week ago at the local music store for $220 with gig bag, took it home, and decided that he wasn't a bass player. Was offering it up with the bag for $130, and even though I'm primarily a 5-string player, I couldn't pass it up. I've been GASsing for a Jag for a long time.

Anyway, pictures:







Looks at home with the entire family:



And yes, I told him he was low-balling it, but he just wanted it gone.

 

Finally got the chance to plug it in and play with it for a bit, and holy cow, this thing thumps!

Thanks to everyone who has spoken so highly of the Squier VM line of basses. You've got another convert on your hands.
