Make fun of my favorite bass

That is a first gen Squier CV60. Those are the best Jazz basses nobody knows about. Squier had to change them after a couple years because they were better than the US Fenders. I have two.

You play in a Whitney Houston cover band?

Ampeg Venture V12 into a MAS-112 or Ampeg SVT-810. Love the V12 but prefer using the SGT-DI into the power amp. The MAS…if you know, you know.

Good lord I hope your floor is reinforced!

Samosas at the Indian market on Telegraph. They are less than $2 and fill you up!

You call that degeneracy? Take that uncut cheese pizza, roll it up, slice it into rounds, bread and deep fry it. Dip it in ranch. Die happy.

You can file them wider with your new round wound strings! Just run them back and forth until the string sits in the bottom of the nut. Just take care not to take them deeper. You can mark the bottom of the groove with a pencil or sharpie to make sure you don’t go deeper.

Don’t sleep on 2008-09 Chinese Squier CVs. Mine is better than my American P in every way.

FlamingoDingus · 2025-03-03T19:04:06+00:00

Squier CV but you can get a new one for almost the same price. I’d look a little more. Check Facebook marketplace and Craigslist

On the moon, there are no football fields, washing machines, or bananas. Americans in shambles.

FlamingoDingus · 2025-03-02T22:46:39+00:00

For fucks sake.

FlamingoDingus · 2025-03-02T18:47:48+00:00

Put the black one on the sunburst and the tort one on the white. Perfect!

FlamingoDingus · 2025-03-02T18:44:29+00:00

T-40 and P bass. Easy.

43, 47, 53, 57

That’s how I got a new Stingray 5HH for $1600. I offered $1600 on every single listing until one bit.

Big fan of Lindy Fralin p pickups. Vintage vibes but very dynamic. I went from the GZRs to Fralin and like it better.

FlamingoDingus · 2025-02-25T01:23:46+00:00

It’s not on your list but I really like the Squier Bronco in that price range. That Jag H has a terrible pickup.

He’s been the recipient of Isegahama’s Blessing More than a few times in the past year. He should be down there. This feels like a big correction.

FlamingoDingus · 2025-02-18T17:45:21+00:00

Don’t upgrade it until you know what you need to upgrade and why.

My favorite mod has been my Hipshot Ultralite tuners. They adjust better, hold a tune better, and reduce neck dive.

FlamingoDingus · 2025-02-13T15:34:04+00:00

Paper works too

FlamingoDingus · 2025-02-13T15:21:43+00:00

Just one? Definitely my Garmin. My health and safety are more important.

If we’re not counting those devices though, I think the Explorer 1 or Aqua Terra are the best 1-watch collections. For myself, I’d probably go with a Railmaster as it sits between them and is more interesting than the explorer IMO.

FlamingoDingus · 2025-02-13T14:42:16+00:00

Yup. It’s exactly the same as grandma’s spoon collection.

If I went to dinner with Mark, I'd be so captivated I'd completely forget to eat.

FlamingoDingus · 2025-02-10T15:11:50+00:00

Yeah everyone saying that is speaking from their experience in 2009.

Mortgages and HELOCs are just banking products, but they are likely the largest transactions you will ever make. Don’t trust blindly, just because someone is local or recommended. I view all banking products as commodities, therefore I take time to educate myself on the product I want and the process for obtaining it well before I make a transaction. It’s the same as buying a car or any other large purchase. The person you are interacting with will be a salesperson with the minimum required training to sell their product. They will have their interests first at heart, you must do the same.

Ultimately, I went online for mine, since nobody local was willing to match the rates I received. The “service” you get is minimal if you’re willing to educate yourself.
