can anybody fit their basses into compact cars, such as a celica?accord?civic? and so forth?

huh... good luck.

When reading up on the Dave Brubeck Quartet, I descovered that they ran into that problem when touring. So they just tied the bass to the top of their trailer. Personally, I`d never to that with my bass, but don`t completely eliminate that possiblility.

i do it ALL the time. its quite simple, really:

1. roll down a window in the back
2. open correspoding door
3. slide the bass in, endpin-first
4. close the door so the neck is out of the window
5. pray it dosent rain.
