    [quote name='eude' timestamp='1489414243' post='3256681'] Wow! I love that Maruszczyk 32" 5er! How's the low B on it? I don't suppose you have any recordings? [/quote] Low B is ace - no real difference in tone than my full size Fender - but there is def a drop in string tension across all strings in comparison which is to be expected really with the 2" shaved off. Not an issue at all, just find I need a lighter touch with the Maruszczyk. The Warwick actually feels higher string tension than the Maruszczyk and also has a sweet B, just prefer the thin neck, preamp and defo the looks of the Maruszczyk = custom-for-me-tastic so the W is now surplus to requirements. No recordings yet but I'll keep ya'll posted! [quote name='Greg.Bassman' timestamp='1489381734' post='3256439'] Hi all. Great thread! I have been looking into shorter scale basses myself lately. Can anyone suggest any (fender) jazz style 32" scale basses, available in the UK, that I could try? Cheers. [/quote] There's no real Jazz style medium options readily available but noticed the new Squier Gary Jarman sig is 32" which is a P/mustang frankenstein vibe (!) but at least you can try one for the feel...? http://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/bass_guitars_detail.asp?stock=160128292809008&gclid=CKP5687c09ICFSEL0wodqR8Ncw

    [quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1489324100' post='3256001'] Out of interest is the body on these slightly smaller than a standard P or full sized? [/quote] Can't comment on the Jake but my Elwood is def slightly smaller body size than my Fender US Dlx J5 - frankly I would've liked it even smaller though. [quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1489312617' post='3255863'] Interesting idea, I guess it would only really work if there was a limited run 'Basschat' spec 32" scale bass? [/quote] Sooo... current owners get commission yeah?

    [quote name='Fisheth' timestamp='1488033870' post='3245222'] Anyone tried a 5 string 32 bass? What's it like? [/quote] As a wee man and a 5 string man I've found medium is defo the best overall fit for me - currently have a custom Maruszczyk Elwood Absolution 5A 32" which is now my go to fiver, along with a Warwick Rockbass Corvette Basic 5 which is up for sale in the classifieds if anyone fancies a medium-sized dalliance with a 5th string...

    Sorry for the delay - string spacing is Warwick's standard 5-string spacing of 16.5mmm... so wee scale length and wee spacing

    [b]**NOW £750**[/b] [b]Or possible trade for medium scale 4-string[/b] ------- Team BC! I present to you a so-new-it-still-has-the-plastic-on-the-pickups-and-scratchplate-ooh-lawdy non-export Fender Aerodyne Jazz bass in a fetching Candy Apple Red, with zero scratches or dings in its travels with me from a Tokyo bass shop. It's an ace bass but the result of dreaded GAS when I was lucky enough to go to Tokyo at the end of last year, though I was really looking for a medium scale but when that search came up fruitless I turned my gaze to this slice of slickness... just I've now come to my post-GAS senses and realised it's not going to get much use in my current projects so here we are. - Specs: 20 fret / 34" long scale / basswood body with the unique carved top and cream binding / maple neck / rosewood board / passive PJ - [attachment=242719:FenderAerodyneJazzBass_Photo1.JPG] - More Pics: [url="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/1pedlac0g754a1r/AACcCNjvA7NC3xlTxxXKxsxea?dl=0"]https://www.dropbox....TxxXKxsxea?dl=0[/url] It is as new as could possibly be, with the original as-new (but frankly, terrifyingly thin & flimsy!) Fender gig bag, plus a Fender strap and even the tags! Collection from SW London or we can meet at a mutually agreeable spot in the capital. Arigatou!

    [b]**Price Drop: [s][u]£500[/u][/s][/b][b]**[/b] [color=#ff0000][b]**NOW £400**[/b][/color] Hello there bass massive. Up for grabs is this fine medium scale active specimen in as-new condition having only been used as a back-up, and actually only used for rehearsals and home use so never actually gigged. It's mega slick to play with a surprisingly taut B-string, and a heads-up the neck is of the 'unfinished' variety with no matte varnish so a slightly different feel but very natural in more ways than one . Rockbass so made in China but build quality is great, just one tiny thing is one of the knobs is stuck on a little wonky (technical term) per the photo below but doesn't affect operation at all - just an alarm for my OCD crew (!) - and the "pearloid" markers are actually decals so easily removed. For sale only, specs and blurb below and photos up here: [url="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rc4iwtdr94o0pcy/AADkxxkkR1suKI0o0_FT2ciza"]https://www.dropbox....suKI0o0_FT2ciza[/url][list] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Scale Length:[/b] 32" (Medium Scale)[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Frets:[/b] 24 Extra High Jumbo Nickelsilver[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Number Of Frets:[/b] 24[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Fret Height:[/b] 1.3mm[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Fret Width:[/b] 2.9mm[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Nut:[/b] Just-A-Nut III[/url] [/list] [url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b] Hardware & Pickups[/b][/url][list] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Pickups:[/b] Active MEC J/J Pickups[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Electronics:[/b] Active 2-Way Electronics[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Controls:[/b] 1 x Volume, 1 x Balance, 1 x Treble, 1 x Bass[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Machine Heads:[/b] Warwick[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Strap-Locks:[/b] Warwick Security Locks[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Hardware:[/b] Chrome[/url] [*][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2017/post-30689-0-88266500-1489000057.jpg"][b]Includes:[/b] Patented Easy Access Electronics Compartment[/url] [/list]
