Disturber Posted June 2, 2006 Posted June 2, 2006 Are these playable? I need a shortscale bass for homestudio use and "pub rehearsing". Doesn't have to be super quality, but should sound good and not feel cheap. Been thinking of a Fender Musicmaster from their Japan series. They are about 400 dollars new. But are these Slammer's any good, or should I stay away?
BCR Greg Posted June 2, 2006 Posted June 2, 2006 They're fun. You have to go over every screw and part and tighten and aqdjust them up, but they are good little recording basses. My daughter has one, and I play it as much as she does.

tomteriffic Posted June 2, 2006 Posted June 2, 2006 I have one, it's a cool bass. My wife glommed onto it and has been practicing with it. Heretofore she had never shown much interest in bass.
elduave Posted June 2, 2006 Posted June 2, 2006 They're decent. I like the way they feel/play and sound. Popular item for us. I have all colors in stock, $149.

Well actually it's with my wife in mind that I now have decided to finally buy a new bass. She wants to back me up on family jam sessions (she is the coolest, I know) I thought shortscale would be great for her. And then I can use it as well when she's not around. 149 dollars is a bargain. I'll Skype a friend in NY tonight and see if he can carry it over for me in August.
