  1. Chairman of the board - Chairman of the board
  2. I've been looking at short scale basses recently. I'm not interested in the short scale Jags/ Bronco/ etc. or a violin bass. Alternatives are limited - There seems to be a lot of old tat out there like the Swift and the Hofner Travel bass (is it a short scale?) and anything else which looks more than half decent is in the £1,000+ region. I do like the look of the Squier Mini at around £130. I tried a Chowny SWB a while back and was underwhelmed with the hardware. The only thing I've seen in the £500-600 range which looks even slightly VFM is the short scale Musicman - £699 seems to be par for the course - you do need to hunt around to find them for less than £619 (Thomann I believe). https://www.music-man.com/instruments/basses/short-scale-stingray Ideally, like many others here I'd like one of @Jabba_the_gut's creations but Jez isn't turning them out and I believe is harassed, understandably, to sell those which are nearing completion. Here's what Bass Direct have: https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Short_Scale_Bass_Guitars.html
