It was largely a piece of furniture to begin with, it most certainly is now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do know we are not all the same shape don't you. But I do get your point or I would if I didn't have my Hart Guitars multiscale headless 5 string. Has that got us back on topic. Probably not but who gives a monkeys banana when you are chilling out as we should be on here.😀 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a lowest spec Squier PJ bass ( which I got purely as most of my other stuff is in bits and I'm running out of playable instruments ) it plays and sounds great, just as it came, strings and all.

I'll be the "inverted snob" then.. To be fair , I couldn't probably even tell you blond folded if I played my Squier p bass as it came originally or the minor upgrades. As long as the strings and neck feels right, the style of your playing will produce that sweet sound. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be the "inverted snob" then.. I have a Squier P bass 50th anniversary 1996 I bought for £50 made in Taiwan (apparently they are very good) Gave it a neck shim and some love. Unbelievable transformation. I was stunned when I played it. Great feel, huge sound, lightish weight. My cheapest bass but not put to shame by some of the other higher value I own. I'll join you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
