The Bass Geek

Yes, it’s a heart-shaped bass. Yes, I am that cheesy. But I also ask you to ponder this hypothetical situation. Take an instrument like this and plop it into the future identity crisis that is Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus. Make the endorsement deal happen. Then, sit back and watch the explosion. I’m talking the bass guitar becoming an overnight status symbol and fashion accessory the likes of which haven’t been seen in decades. Stings and pickups debated with the passion and intensity of Britney vs. Christina (Christina won, by the way). Vera Ashley gig bags dominate the market. Fox picks up a new teen drama that’s just like “The Heights,” but they focus on the bassist this time.

Ponder that world for a minute.

Then go back to whatever you were doing before. It’s not worth a terrible amount of effort, really.

Happy Valentine’s Day.
