odd addition to this bass....

[LukeFRC]

Now I know why Leo fender added them in the 50's.... but why has this fella added one? Do folk actually still use them? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Musicman-Sub-Bass-USA-Made-/280925598437?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item41687872e5#ht_500wt_1219

That's not a thumb rest. It's a tug bar.

Always love it when they say stuff like "scratches do not affect playing at all" How deep would they actually have to be to affect the playing? It's up there with " I don't know anything about basses....."

I know that Sting uses the tug bar on his old Tele bass when he plays

So they know it has a 'slim taper D profile neck' yet can't spell 'bass'

That's a cut and paste, either from a dealer or the epi website. Whereas they had to do the title by themselves.
