Those two stickers may affect the bass' tone. I suggest you send me both of them for a side -by -side comparison.

Don't remove it, the value is in the sticker, silly! :twisted:

Stickers belong on no guitar, regardless of what they read. :wink:
try telling that to a 15 year old punk rocker kid that just got his first guitar :lol: :lol:

I noticed this too. They changed it pretty soon after I got my 330. Still can't bring myself to take it off. Maybe it's not cool to keep it on, but it's a particular point of pride and respect for me. I don't think people who actually play gigs keep it on, so maybe if I ever do a live show...

You'll never get the full potential out of the guitar as long as that sticker is still on it, just sayin'! :wink:

The sticker is placed right below the picking area, i'm not sure how you could keep it intact even if you wanted to unless you never play the guitar.

Hmm, I've never hit the pick guard with a pick, so the sticker would have no problem staying intact. Of course, I don't use a pick...
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

I believe they are made in China (at least the previous ones).

Just like all those little 9/11 flags everybody went nuts for?

If you don't run your bass through a stereo cable, the terrorists have won! :lol:

The new stickers are made in the USA.
