Would you like a free cardboard canoe for your pretend river in your front yard? Here's what you have to do:

1. Convince your significant other that he or she should be a bass player.
2. Place an order with Musician's Friend ( http://www.musiciansfriend.com ) for a jam pack bass package. It's about $120.
3. Wait for UPS to deliver the guitar.
4. Remove the bass from the box. There should be four boxes: top and bottom of outer box, top and bottom of inner box.
5. You now have four free yard canoes!

These canoes are sturdy and should hold up through pretend waterfalls, pretend white rapids, and even pretend bears.

Note: Oars not included.
