That's it really, you found a good one today but so many players get put off because they happen to pick up and try a not so good one, (of which there are plenty), or a poorly set up one, or one with worn out/dead strings.
Find a good one though and it is such a pleasing thing and feels so right.

You got it, a good bass is a good bass.......add to that that most Fenders are uncomplicated and easy to live with so you have a winning combination. I find the same with Stingrays
