    Hi Tom, glad to have you here! Tell us more about yourself, what you play, where you're from, etc.

    Hmm, bass player - ok, I won't get into the bass player jokes (we use drummers for that).

    Good to have you aboard - there are a few from Philadelphia that belong to thefret.

    Welcome and have fun.

    Great instruments! I have a SX bass too, a Jazz bass copy, and I really like it. I like playing bass too, but it's my secondary instrument. Trying to learn how to play guitar is my main interest.

    Welcome!

    I sometimes play bass too.

    Used to play in church myself and miss it, hope to again some time. Btw, iirc the Squier Vintage Modified Telecaster SSH you have actually has stacked humbuckers in the two "singles" slots, so it's really HHH!
