I lived in Bucks Co. PA, from 85-90 when I was in the Navy. Durring that time I worked part time for a couple Music stores North of Philly doing electronic repair.
One of my best Navy Buddies, a Bad-Ass Guitar Player is from the Carlisle/Harrisburg area.

I am loving 35 scale 4 string basses..
But I have one myself! Its a Dunable Yeti, and Iam so happy how it turned out.

I have big hands, and are looking for another 4 string 35 scale bass. After alot of research, I find it very hard to actually find a bass thats just 4 strings, and a 35 scale. Why is that? Of course I find some if I look really hard.

Just saw a guy want to sell a Ovation Magnum III. Its a 4 string 36 scale. It also have a really rare pickup configuration. He are selling it for 1900 dollar in my town. But Its alot to spend on another bass right now.

Do you know any brands that do 35? Gibson?

From this pic it looks to be in great shape.

Steve Wise from Austin built it for me. I designed it when I was a kid to accomplish what imagined to be the most growly of tones. It was a dream and way to capture the sound I envisioned for myself And it has been a beast, Been through a lot. Touring and all sorts of abuse. I've posted about on here a bit.
