New PureSalem basses for 2022

[Naviiin]

They look great, the 30" really caught my eye. Though I do wonder about neckdive. Wish I could try one out, but I think they have no distributor in Europe.

They have a pretty cool kitsch thing going on, but with those ergos they're probably aiming at the niche market that doesn't mind (or isn't yet aware of) the built-in awkwardness of the shapes.

If the La Flaca was 30", and the J Doe was 32" scale....that would seem to make more sense IMO. The 34" Creep model looks like it's aimed at fans of the reverse T-Bird, the BC Rich and Teisco aesthetic.....all stuffed into one enchilada. Some kudos for putting out something different with interesting finishes, at least.

Japanese bassists are going to love the Classic Creep.
Too bad some of their really nice models are guitar only.

I went for the La Flaca bass, Natural Satin finish.
34 Scale.
Should have it around next month or July.
Will try to post a pic when it arrives.
