35" scale basses

[mntngrown]

I want something rather cheap to take on the road. So in event of theft or damage. It won't be such a heart break

Insurance is cheap. Musicpro and others. Not endorsing any in particular. Peavey Cirrus used and Lakland 5502 used, can be snagged for the nimble at super prices sometimes.

Does that matter? We were all non supporting members at one time.
He's a Texan, that's enough for me.

Modulus Quantum

+1..... And even the 4 strings are 35" which is kinda rare.

OK...this is WIDE open....

I would say, get a lakland...they are some of the BEST out there and all of the fivers are 35" scale....the B strings are better than most ("best" than most" imho)

Awesome basses but the price isn't right cheapest I can find used is $700

That's the price of my studio bass new.

Hate carbon fiber necks, too stiff

When did neck stiffness become a bad thing?

I bought a Lakland Skyline expressly for that purpose: Because I realized that all my other basses were unique, custom, or prized-yet-no-longer-available...and it would devestate me if they were lost or damaged on the road.

So I found a Lakland Skyline 55-02D that is at least 90% as good as any of my other basses, and yet if some piker knocks it off the stand between sets at the local Sisters Of The Blessed Pudenda Spring Fling dance and the thing completely self-destructs, I can go down to Guitar Center the next day and buy that exact same bass right off the shelf.

It's got a 35" scale length, fwiw.

So does my Modulus and my Rob Allen.
