LukeFRC Posted December 21, 2021 Posted December 21, 2021 Sell the Fender 1) the bb1600 sounds so good 2) I literally only bid on that bloody roadster on Friday - and picked it up sat - I had known you were thinking of selling the bb1600 Ild have come to Manchester instead. So sell the fender and I’ve got time to work out how to sell an ibanez 1 Quote
bigsmokebass Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 I do like the aesthetics of the fender more but I think and feel the yamaha would be one I'd keep. Perhaps find a nice pick guard for it? Quote
clauster Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 I'm a Fender man most of the time. But out of those two, I'd keep the BB. Quote
