    Did anyone try the new shortscale bass from Ashdown? Here's the link. Apparently, it's in its early stages. The info on their site is lacking. Body wood unknown, no full specs, pictures show 20 frets instead of 19 etc.

    An interesting topic. I consider myself an introvert too, sometimes behaving like an extravert. It largely depends on my energy level. And here's the thing: if the gig is good, then you're not only sharing your energy, but also receiving a lot from the audience too. And the better the gig - the stronger the flow. So that means a gig should be really good. Otherwise think of it as just another rehearsal with your bandmates when you're getting paid!

    Thanks! Yeah, maybe a Vista. I'll pass on a Bronco: need good wood and RW neck with a nice nut width to start with. There are still plenty of abused MM basses (with their value lost for good) out there though.

    Lovely bass! I've been toying with this idea of putting a TB pickup into a Fender shortie. Got a leftover humbucker from Gibson LPDC Tribute bass. Fully repackaged into a nickel cover, nickel baseplate and with a nickel ring. Just don't want to ruin a Mustang bass: the model I like (JMJ) is good as-is. Perhaps, I could find an old and previously abused MusicMaster. Not sure if a TB pickup (plus a ring) would fit the smaller pickguard footprint. Something to think about.
