Just came in today, Musician's Friend had a 25% of sale for October so I pulled the trigger and it was a total of $180 with tax. Was going to get the cheap Hofner but I am not really a bass player so got this and it is great for the price will do the trick. Got flatwound beatle bass strings and tea cup knobs coming and that should do the trick on this one!

What year?

This is a brand new Rogue (Musician's Friend/Guitar Center chink brand) that was cheap but reviews are decent on it. Played a little and it's fine if you want a Beatle bass for little money that sounds and plays nice.

I freaked out and said man this must be worth a fortune.

Then it wasn't, not is would be worth a few thousand.

But it was just, likely, one of thousands that were sold at that time after the Beatles took over the world.

There were but Paul got one because it was short scale and cheap. In high school a friend scored an old Rickenbacker like Lennon's cheap that was in bad shape from being stored in a basement. He refinished it in a horrible orange color and while I wouldn't mind one now I was not totally into it. The thing had a child's neck with a 19" scale so it was hard to play many things on. Maybe a chink copy will scratch that itch?

>There were but Paul got one because it was short scale and cheap.

Makes sense, didn't know that. I'm almost positive I had a Rickenbacker bass but I'm not sure, you'd think I'd remember that. It could have just been a Fender. Always used a pick.

I did play a small Fender Mustang bass for a while, I don't see them anywhere nowadays.
