I play for the fun of it. I'm in a band, and we get paid for the shows we play, but even with that this is purely what I do for fun. I make my living in the computer field, so I have complete freedom to do as I wish musically. If I made my living playing bass, I probably would still walk out rather than play a Fender..

I'd probably agree to play almost anything else though. I just seriously dislike Fender basses.. They are kindling for a good fire IMHO and that's about all they are good for.. I've never in my life played a good Fender bass. I've played many Fender's in my time, trying them just to try and find one that doesn't suck. Some were almost tolerable, but most would better serve as a door stop than a bass. If all basses in the world other than Fenders evaporated tomorrow, I'd probably just quit playing bass rather than be forced to play Fenders..

I hope I successfully conveyed my feelings about Fenders..
