I'm pretty sure that Pete has done some 35" scale basses but I can't think of any specific ones off-hand. He did a 30" piccolo bass neck for me.

You're welcome! I wish I got in on the discussion sooner. Someone pinged me on Facebook a while back and said that they thought this might be my old bass. Pete sent me these photos back in around 2000.

It's a standard 34" scale. I bought it from Pete Hanewinckel himself directly in around 2001. Sold it a few years later.

That's my old Hanewinckel 6-string fretless. It used to be Pete Hanewinckel's personal bass. He sold it to me in around 2001. But I bought a custom 7-string fretless from him and sold this one and another 6-string that also used to belong to Pete Hanewinckel. I was offered good money for them at...

In honor of Mike, I'm going to get myself banned. To Mike! You ***** ******* ** *****ers!!!!

Very nice! Wish I had the money for that. Here's a free bump instead.

I'm still interested in selling this if anyone's interested.

It was inevitable. http://www.freewoodpost.com/2015/02/11/kanye-west-now-official-spokesman-for-massengill-douches/

The instrument is still for sale. Make me an offer. We'll go from there. Thanks for your interest. Dave

I bought this a year ago from a fellow TalkBass.com member. It's a fantastic bass. Near-mint condition. I'll get some new close-up photos soon. Plays and sounds great. It's so nice that I don't like keeping it out of the case because I don't want it to get damaged. I have my trusty Hanewinckel...

Price drop to $2300 shipped, CONUS. $150 off for San Francisco/Oakland/Bay Area, California pickup.

Listen to the sustain!

If I didn't already have a semi-hollow 6-string with piezos and Acousticores, I'd totally buy yours. That is a killer price for an instrument like that.

Wow, great price for that thing. Are those Thomastik-Infeld Acousticore strings on there? I have a set of those on a 6-string semi-hollow. They sound amazing with piezos!

The beauty of this particular configuration is that the straight fourths tuning would make it easy for bassists to pick up since all the chord and scale patterns they may already know will work anywhere on the neck.
