Y'all need to explain me something.
My first bass was a Peavey T-40 ca 1983 or so. By any standard, an entry level bass. It weighed approximately two million tons. If you fiddled the knobs right one way, you could get a decent bright tone; if you set them another, a decent heavy tone. All other settings were pointless.
In the 90s I upgraded to an Ibanez fretless SDGR SR800. It could do every good sound the Peavey could do, made a lot of sounds the Peavey couldn't do, and weighed a lot less. You can buy one used for like $400.
Now here's my question.
WHAT IN THE GODDAMN HELL IS GOING ON HERE? That someone would buy a goddamn cinder block disguised as a musical instrument for more than $100, much LESS this kinda price, ... you gotta be outta your fuckin mind. what the fuck
