Until then I'll make do with my P and J shortscale experimentals using Mustang RI and Bronco necks.

| | | I'm anxiously awaiting them, too! Mid 2010 is painful, especially when they've already posted pix of them!

If you're really interested, email sales@warmoth.com and let them know you're ready to buy. The sales/web side of the house needs to get their part done. (And that includes me too....) |

My next purchase is a Squier Bronco and when I'll need a high end bass I'll seek warmoth. Especially if the Short scale necks are thin! If they aren't, well, I'll give them a shot anyways. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2008 Location: Quebec , QC, Canada | | | 30'' and 32'' IIRC. |

Neither - it's based on a real Fender MIJ 32" scale Jbass, which is like a downsized vintage J with a smaller bulge where the controls go. We've also done a short scale Z bass, and soon there will be a short scale G4 in double and single cutaway versions. For the singlecut G4, think Rob Allen Mouse-ish.
| From the forum. Quote: |
One short scale body, two interchangeable necks, one 30" and one 32" scale.
