Thanks for the interest. I'd venture a guess at it weighing just at or under 8lbs. Very light considering the basswood body.

Yes, it is 34" scale.

String spacing, from Ibanez, has it at 16.5mm at the bridge: GWB35 Detail

You should double check that, I believe all the newer GWBs are 35" scale (which is the orgin of the bass name, GWB35).

BTW, these are great basses, I have the GWB-1.

According to both the Japanese and American Ibanez sites, this bass is 34" scale:

This still available? I played one at NAMM today and really liked it. What was unbelievable though was the GWB1005NTF!!!!! Sheezis what an awesome axe. But I'm not going to shell out 3 grand for one. Going back tomorrow to try them again.

Gary Willis signature basses have always been 34 inch scale.
