News Flash!: Squier Not a Real Bass

[fourstringdrums]

So the UPS guy just dropped off a Squier Classic Vibe '51 P for me. He sees the Yamaha Electronic Drumset that I have next to the door and he says that he plays bass. So I say "Oh really? That's what this is". He asks me what kind and I tell him and he says "Oh, I have a Warwick. I play BASS, man"

That's why he's driving a UPS truck. His "Rockbass" is somehow better than your Squier. Go figure.

Another lesson in how to make friends and influence people.

LOL

you shoulda said, "no, you deliver boxes to people's doorsteps."

 

[tabdog]

Quick!!!

Let me hide my Peavey,,,,

It's not the type of bass you play, it's how you use it

wow so what have i been playing for the last 2 years. a banana?

No need to insult people's career choices guys. There are bass players who work at 7-11 and there are bass players who are in charge of fortune 500 companies. Class has nothing to do with it.

no need to insult people's gear choices either. regardless of your day job, a REAL player wouldn't rip someone down like that because they bought a sub-$300 bass.

the delivery guy is probably a hack and insecure about his own playing abilities.

Yeah my buddy who doesnt even play anything. Walks in my room see's my squier and is like a squier? And whats that supposed to mean. I dont know people are dumb and need to get over names. I see my squiers just as good as my fenders.

Q: How do you get a Warwick player off your front porch?

Sign for the package, apparently.

 

[gjbassist]

What can Brown do for you? Apparently they can insult your choice of gear.

exactly. Top pay (made after 30 months of service i believe) for a UPS driver is over $30/hr. Not exactly chump change for slinging some packages. They also get overtime and route bonuses as well.
