    Short Scale Recommendations

    Hi, I’ve been playing bass for about a year and really love it (I’m still playing guitar, too). I bought a Fender Mustang PJ MIM to get started and am considering an upgrade. Given my short stature and small hands I’m thinking I should stick to short scale. I’d love to hear thoughts from...

    I have a couple of old shortscale basses of the early 70s and there is an issue. The e-string tends to brake because of the short diameter of the tuners. If i use normal length strings the strings are very thick when I wind them on the tuners. Is there a trick to for example pre-bend the strings...
