Fender giveaway

By Matt /15 years ago / 0 Comments

[newsImage]060210_fendermike.jpg[/newsImage]Fender is having a giveaway of Mike Dirnt's Squier Precision signature bass. Along with the bass, the winner will receive a Fender Rumble 15 Combo bass amp and a copy of Green Day: Rock Band.

It's a monster. This is the loudest bass I own and it's a Squier P Bass, and that says something. One of the things about the Squier pickups in this model bass is that I said to Fender, 'You've got to make them roar,' and they do.
