Good point dadagoboi. Some players get great tones from Fenders, I just don't seem to be one of them, 30 plus years of playing nothing but Gibsons have left Fenders a bit of a mystery to me
It is in only the last 8-10 years or so that I have made any attempt at playing a Fender and only seriousley in the last 2 years. JPJ's early sound was pretty ballsy over time it got quite tame and rather bland. For a live situation I need a bass that will do what I ask of it and not have to fight it all the time. Beside no one is paying attention to what I am doing everyone is watching the guitar player
I have been thinking of picking up a vintage Acoustic rig
