squier bass out, yamaha trbx174ew in
Well, that didn't last long. I returned the Squier Precision Bass PJ because it had an unfixable problem. However, I should be very clear that it was only unfixable to that very specific bass and certainly not for all of them.
What I'm about to describe is actually something that can happen to any new bass. There are a few fixes you can try, and I'll talk about that, but if the fixes don't work, you have to get another bass.
This was an adventure.
I've been using Linux for over a year now. An OS notification came through that said hey, you can update to the new LTS. I thought about maybe waiting to do it since it is a rather large update.
Then I said screw it. I'm committed to Linux now as my daily driver OS, so let's do this and see what breaks.
Yes, some stuff broke.
I needed a bass guitar, and this one fit the bill, so I bought it.
Does this mean I got rid of a guitar to get it?
Yes.
