"Ode to my Fender Jazz Bass" by Smurfco

[smurfco]

I bought you brand new in 2015,
You had the nicest burst I have seen.

A lot of my instruments come and go,
But this one has a special glow.

Strung up with low action and TI flats,
This bass is really where it's at.

The neck feels so good in my hand,
And it looks great sitting on a stand.

I added a thumbrest and strap locks,
But otherwise it's factory stock.

Oh, Jazz Bass, how I love you so!
I'm never going to let you go!

Nice, Bernie! Now we need Elton to put some music to it.

This was really quite a shocker!
Nothing rhymes with Rickbacker?

How about P-Bass?
Do your boots need a re-lace?

When I bust a riff on my P-bass,
Folks say I am quite the ass.

I think that I shall never face
A tree as lovely as my bass

Now that is good

Beat me to it.

If you'd written something half as nice for your high school sweetheart, she never would have left you for that shoe salesman from the mall.

Got an email from MF, had to look through their secret sale and make sure I wasn't missing anything. Saw this and thought of you.

Just wondering if you have any bag-centric poetry.
