I've been wanting to try a multiscale
guitar for some time, then a picture of this bass popped up on facebook, and as i was just having a little browse at the pictures, noticed it was multi scale, so tooka little more notice.. then googling started.. then youtube.. it goes on.. anyway, watched this video.
At 2:43 he says the words "Panga Panga". I must have watched him say that about 6 or seven times in a row.. it's the true highlight of the video.
i also want the bass now. It's a new 2017/18 model so will be waiting a year or so before doing some hardcore considering.. but.. gas has got me in it's expensive clutches...

I picked up one of the Dingwall Combustions and it's really awesome, even in standard tuning. So much clarity on the low string.
i'm more secretly worried that if i do get it i'll want to play it.. what if i'm secretly a bassist!? I don't know what to tell my wife. How will my family react to this?
This sounds like an excuse. Just buying time to sprout a hipster beard.
Haha, that too! But i've noticed on the new model Corts (i got an X-16LTD in 2016) that they tend to get a hefty price reduction within a year. A year after i got the X16 it was close to £200 less than what i got it for.
I do already have a bass, which i have had over 10yrs and used it quite extensively and up until now i've never felt the want of something new...
Time to get those bass beard granules sprouting.. are flip flops mandatory or can i wear them on a ad-hoc basis?
American session bassist, Anthony Jackson, always commissioned his extended range bass guitars with Fifties Fender P string spacing.
