30" Short Scale Stingrays
Curious if anyone’s played / bought one of these yet…? Would like to hear some feedback about them.
I recently started playing bass again after a long time being burnt out, and trying (and failing…) to improve on guitar.
Plus I’m getting older and having more issues with my hands. I’ve found it more difficult and uncomfortable to play my old full scale basses than it used to be, so I started looking at options.
Anyway, I just picked up an ‘affordable’ 32″ bass and am really enjoying it! It’s way more balanced, lighter and easier on my hands. I can tell a bit of difference in the voicing/tone due to the scale length… It’s not bad, just different.
So that’s got me wondering about the 30″ scale, as far as the sound…???
