Don't get me wrong I've wanted a Mustang for years but that's a huge difference in price for a few changes. I really hope I'm wrong and there's more to it than that[/quote] Different body wood too, I doubt it will have the same neck as the Bronco either but time will tell.

The Gibson basses have always been a bit of a law unto themselves so I would definitely try before I buy, but if you like them (I do) there's nothing else that looks, feels or sounds quite the same.[/quote] I wouldn't have said the Mustang was a particularly budget instrument, the current Japanese models retail for around £650 now and come with SD pickups as far as I'm aware?

I've got one of those little Action Jr basses too, it's surprisingly decent for the money! I've only managed to get the action down to 3mm thus far, but I'm working on it. I'd agree that the nut is cut a little high too but I haven't dared mess with that yet. The neck is a bit too slim for my tastes, but it actually has a fairly usable and even sound, balances well and weighs in at less than 7lbs!

[quote name='AndyTravis' post='1178408' date='Mar 27 2011, 02:59 PM']There's also a short scale Jaguar bass coming too...[/quote] Really?!

Blimey, these look lovely! I see they have lightweight bodies in the specs, what sort of weights are they clocking in at?
