The Black PG is still in first place, at least for now. The Black Motto is second.

Or you could be totally radical and have no pick guard on it at all. :P Then you could drag it down the road behind a pickup truck, for that "Jaco" look. :P

That's the last thing I'd want.

It's funny, people will pay over $2000 for crap like that. :P I suppose the one advantage is you don't have to worry so much about banging up your bass, but I'd generally have something in new condition if I'm buying it new.

Yeah,........ The first ding on a bass can be a traumatizing event. But at least it will be my ding, and I'll have the sad story to tell, and bore people with for how it was inflicted to it. OUCH!!!

True. Sometimes, I might accidentally knock the bass on the end of my office table or chair (both wood,) and it makes me cringe, but luckily, they haven't left any noticeable damage at all. I do try to baby my gear as much as I can, though.

It's a good attitude to have. I did that on the road with other's property. My guys treated all the gear, as if it was their gear. We didn't worry about people from the audiance getting on the stage, that was the security's job to handle that. We made sure the gear wasn't in jeopardy. You don't PISS OFF a Roadie on stage.

Of course, sometimes the band itself can be a detriment to the gear. :P

That's out of the concern of the road crew then.

I've been going back between the Squier Jazz and the Telecaster, besides the violin bass and Precision, using the Telecaster to put together some chords for some song ideas that I've been knocking around. I should do a group photo of my Squiers, I think that would look cool, since they all have the same finish.

Maybe pretty soon I will. I have to decide whether I bring the Precision Bass upstairs, where the Tele and Jazz are in the rehearsal room, or haul those two downstairs and set them up in the living room, on a couch.
