Here’s the one that started it all

Somewhere in the “build threads “ search for -semi hollow fretless , it’s a well documented build by the genius known as Jabba the Gut .

As for a 32” scale, there is only one !!!

The legend has returned, I like many others on here owe you a great deal, welcome back , I’ve learned a lot from your hardwork, one of my favourites, Dave Hollands “ thieves in the temple “ with Herbie Hancock, thank you for your efforts.

@Dumpystumps Yes it’s me Ian, depending how my wife’s treatment goes, hopefully we can meet up soon, happy for you to PM me through the forum.

I’m assuming you’re tuned BEADG.

A five also better than a short scale, play all your 4 string riffs at the 5th fret to see what I mean, good luck on your new journey !!

Sadly this year hasn’t been the year we planned to have at Wrinkley Towers, so will have miss this one, if there’s any crumble left over, any chance you could pop some in the post !!!! Have a great day everyone.

It’s down on the bridge.

I had to part with my Sei headless 5 when my arthritic fingers struggled with the neck width, I reverted back to 4 strings but couldn’t forget that missing low B. Salvation appeared when I got my hands on a Wilkinson 4+1 conversion kit and transformed my mongrel P bass, the narrow string width won’t suit everyone, but as I swap between guitar and bass the 16.5mm works for me, together with a regular 4 string neck width, I’m back in heaven

Both of my P basses are 1.5 treble, 2.0 bass side at 12th fret, both have a playing card shim in the neck pocket just below the lower screw holes, hope that this helps.
