So I'm looking for a cheap but good bass to learn but I'd like that the bass were short scale so that also my girlfriend can learn to play it. I haven't so much money for an Epiphone EB0 or a Squier Bronco Bass and the famous SX 3/4 basses Are not available (nobody sells them) where I live. I found these basses on a famous german website and the price is good for my budget; the basses are the following:
1) Jack and Danny Mini PB: [url="http://www.musicstore.de/it_IT/ITL/Bassi/Bassi-elettrici-a-4-corde/Jack-and-Danny-PB-Mini-Black-/art-BAS0004807-000"]http://www.musicstore.de/it_IT/ITL/Bassi/Bassi-elettrici-a-4-corde/Jack-and-Danny-PB-Mini-Black-/art-BAS0004807-000[/url]
2) Jack and Danny Mini JB: [url="http://www.musicstore.de/it_IT/ITL/Bassi/Bassi-elettrici-a-4-corde/Jack-and-Danny-JB-Mini-SB-Sunburst/art-BAS0007168-000"]http://www.musicstore.de/it_IT/ITL/Bassi/Bassi-elettrici-a-4-corde/Jack-and-Danny-JB-Mini-SB-Sunburst/art-BAS0007168-000[/url]
3) Jack and Danny Vintage 1963 P Bass: [url="http://www.musicstore.de/it_IT/ITL/Bassi/Bassi-elettrici-a-4-corde/Jack-and-Danny-PB-Vintage-1963-FSR-Fiesta-Red/art-BAS0007157-000"]http://www.musicstore.de/it_IT/ITL/Bassi/Bassi-elettrici-a-4-corde/Jack-and-Danny-PB-Vintage-1963-FSR-Fiesta-Red/art-BAS0007157-000[/url]
I read a discussion about the Jack and Danny Vintage Jazz Basses and people were satisfied of the purchase and the good quality at a low price; but I'm afraid that the Mini Basses are not the same thing: I read that the Harley Benton short scale P Bass, for example, is a total garbage and I'm very interesting in the J&D Mini P Bass (my dream, a precision with a real short scale, 29" in the specs on the site); the Mini JB would be the second choice (same scale) and, if the Mini Basses are not good, I'd buy that Vintage 1963 P Bass. So my questions are: what about the quality of these J&D Mini Basses (especially the mini P Bass)? And that Vintage 1963 P Bass? Is the quality the same of the Vintage Jazz Bass? I hope to finde someone that can give me some elucidation here.
