This popped up last year thru different shop, and it was quickly purchased, and now it's back on the market (and the price is same, so the previous owner is taking a bit of financial hit).


Is this really Medium scale???    The owner of the shop had a booth in Nashville guitar show this weekend and I forgot to ask him about this particular bass when I spoke to him...


Price isn't too bad considering it went thru the complete re-finish and electronics updated.

Michael [dela217] has a pretty good eye for the long-scale ones... not sure I could tell a 32" from a 30-3/4" from a picture, but sometimes the pickup placement is a clue. Got to admit, I really like that 32" medium-scale... been struggling trying to get used to a 34" recently.

Same here, made a mistake of ordering 34" originally back in '96 and couldn't handle it, with the standard point body shape.
Europa and other, more 'balanced' shapes, I can handle no problem.  In fact, I love my Europa with 34" scale


I'll ask the shop later today.

Yo my eye it doesn’t look any longer than my 30.75” Stanley. It is a bit hard to say for sure.
