  1. A mistake or purposeful misrepresentation, there has been ample time for Fender/Gretsch to respond to the bass community. That they have not done so, leads me to believe they're trying their best to come up with a plausible explanation that will basically amount to bs.
  2. Beat me to it. Nothing else comes close!
  3. Wouldn't take one in from the cold if I found it on my front porch Christmas morning.
  4. Sure, I'd definitely be happy with this one.
  5. Those ridiculous tooled-leather pickguards. Sure, just a mod, but so hideous I wouldn't even try out a bass with one.
  6. Unfinished headstocks. Absolutely ruins the look of a bass. With a maple fretboard, no problem, but with rosewood,, ebony, etc? Looks like crap.

  8. I prefer Glowtech.
  9. I have two USA-made G&L L2000s and a Reverend Thundergun...among the best basses made, but there's just something special about my Italia Imola.
  10. Luckily we have Epiphone.
  11. Just bought this, but it had absolutely nothing to do with the signature. Wouldn't be caught dead in Calvin Klein jeans or Yeezy sneakers, etc.

  13. Never really considered one of these in my eight years of playing, though I've owned a number of Epiphone Thunderbirds. Took one for a spin last week and discovered I've been missing something special. (Hipshot Supertone 3-point bridge and Magma black tapewounds.)
  14. Eleven basses, three are twins, two are close.
  15. This question comes up so often, and the debate never gets resolved. The sad thing is, it's often best to think outside the box, and I'm not talking about Musicman, G&L, Ibanez, etc. Reverend Thundergun, still the best-kept secret in the bass world.
  16. True enough. Same goes for an EB-0.
  17. The OP decided to go with this. First bass I currently own that I actually played before buying!
  18. I wish the issue had been addressed. I really wanted this one.
  19. Good thing about buying a bass today? You can buy one that feels good, sounds good, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 looks good. Now more than ever before.
  20. No tone control in passive mode? Seriously?
  21. No tone control in passive mode, just like the new Meteora. That's some forward thinking, there! Not to mention they still refuse to properly shield them. They know it's an issue but they just don't care.
