I ran over my guitar today!

Maybe you should pick up the Piano or Organ. Both of those are hard to run over.

:thatsfunny: Just don't learn on a synthesizer, those can be fragile.

If anyone has the thought of "accidentally" running over his or her bass guitar, please mail it to me instead. I'll pay for shipping! And maybe even a little extra!

I own a fender Squire P bass, you know the ones you get in beginners packs. I have all sorts of problems with the neck and the frets, and sometimes the pickups, and the input jack. I have a new amp (crate 50 dlx). but i would like a new bass, cause this one is just, not good. If i didnt have to spend money on college i would save up for the new bass, and parents would possibly help pay if i accidently ran over it. But for the time being its my bass, and i plan to protect it so i can continue playing for my enjoyment

Omigosh.

Just the sight of a flat pancake guitar.... I would love to see.

I'm trying hard not to laugh thinking about it, and I feel bad for it striking me as even remotely funny.


But you're right, it does give you an excuse to get a nice new guitar.... :ph34r:

Just fix it...you'd be suprised by what a bit of glue can do...

[JazzforJesus]

i read alot about acoustic repair, dont do it on your own, glue wont fix certain areas. its a shame

ahh, well that explains it. a squire. usually they're still pretty nice, but they aren't nearly as nice an actual fender. my guess is bad wiring, and a neck that needs to be adjusted well. when my bro got a bass, he got this free one, made by Sam Ash's own company. the thing buzzed like mad, and didn't sound that hot. however, i sat down with it, and in 20 min, it was playing great. the intonation is really good now, and there is no buzzing at all.

crate makes nice amps as well. save up for a new bass, sure. but, i wouldn't recommend squashing this one. besides, get a jazz bass, and you'll have P and J basses, which will be nice.

Aw, okay. Just knowing that there's some good bass-playing going on somewhere in the world is enough to make me happy, I suppose. Good luck on getting your dream bass!
