But, new from Thomann they are hardly anymore - decisions! What do people think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_the_bass Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 i think the upgrade bit was added on when fender starting supplying them in gigbags as opposed to the old version which didn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers.[/quote] New or used, a £250 bass that has great tone and feels good is a better buy than a £500 bass with awful tone that doesn't feel right in your hands. With so many on the market I'd only buy a bass that I could pick up and play for 30mins or so. Hamster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
