BOOM. six string bass 29 and some odd fraction inch scale
Borked.
First Impression:
1. This neck sucks. After playing only really nicely fitted, and usually glossy finished fender necks, this neck ("satin" finish) feels like shit. Might have to FINISH the neck. I understand that you can sell your guitars cheaper if you don't FINISH them, so I guess I'm willing to take it, especially considering I traded for a Bit Mangler.
2. This idea is very cool.
It's a lot of low strings. As is the case with all the short scale six string basses out there, it really is it's own animal. I bumped up the low string to a 105 in an effort to tighten up my low D tonez. I'm finding that it's still not very good at my traditional bass style. HOWEVER, I think there's a pretty good chance I will change this over to A-a, we have a few songs where I go no lower than an open A, and 2 songs I usually play on the beast
Tuned AEAA
3. Pickups might be really weak. I don't play a really intense bass or anything (mustang RI) and it has wayyy better response/snap/bass/powarrrr clean. Again, i think it hsould be fine as a baritone.
4. After playing a custom shop bass VI, nothing really compares.
had to assure the poor bugger I had not broken their amps. Builds on my reputation, I guess
