I think you should buy one.
Probably tomorrow.
HTH.
Are there internal organs that you could sell to finance a Gibson EB-650?
Of the few hollow body basses I've tried, I've always found them to be too wooly, this might be a good compromise.

No internal organs - apparently I need them..
Not as much, but still nice tho!
I can not believe that nobody has made the obvious gag about those organs for which you might have little or no use.
The controls are volume, tone and blend - I don't know about the P-Bass but on the Tele, the blend control works backwards - 'forwards' gives the piezo pickup - but is easily rewired. The one in the OP has had the Lace magnetic pickup and knobs replaced. The fretless one has also had the knobs replaced - they came with 'F top' knobs originally, but they very often get changed because the F tops fall off...

I've got a Duesenberg which is 30" scale but whilst it has a shorter decay than my Fender Jazz for example, being a semi with a central sustain block it has a much smoother sound than a fully-hollow one (just like the difference between a Casino and 335-type guitar).
- That acoustic p bass is lovely. Ibanez have got a couple of semi hollow basses out at the moment. Saw one in GAK a couple of weeks ago. Didn't try it but it looked quite nice. Will have a slinky neck profile unfortunately .

I am going to go for no pickguard, ultralight tuners and a fairly meaty bridge to try to keep the weight down but the balance spot on.
Build thread will start in a bit.
