He has played Bass guitar for 16 years in several local bands. He recently started playing in a jazz band and considered purchasing a new Fender Bass, however they are priced between $600-$1300. He was shopping with his daughter at the South Elgin Goodwill Store and he decided to look in the electronics case. Much to his surprise, they had a Fender Jazz Bass and it was in very good condition, so he purchased the Bass and a dress for his daughter. It was quite a trip!
