New backup bass day

 

got down to one bass but what a bass 72 P but band suggested I was tempting fate turning up to gigs with one bass. I have never needed the backups I’ve taken. Ever!

 

I caved in and thought I’m just going to get a super cheap bass that can sit in a case - saw the Squier Jag Bass with one big pup - £219 - got it yesterday expecting it to be bad - but neck is satin smooth and zero fret sprout or sharp frets, 32inch - not had 32 or Jag before. It’s really nice to play. Pickup is nicely balanced and has a nice grunt to it. 
 

Tuners seem to be fine. Bridge is cheap - that and the strings are the only things I’ll change I think. 
 

im digging playing it too - rehearsals tomorrow to test it out.

Good call, always good to have a cheap backup, just in case.
