Hi @thebrig - it's 1.75"

Really nice short scale Japanese Jazz Bass. I imported it myself from new & from what I can see online it was only really available in Australia & Japan. Specs are at https://www.fender.com/en-AU/electric-basses/jazz-bass/made-in-japan-junior-collection-jazz-bass/5682100306.html Not had more than home use & close to new condition - scratchplate still has protective plastic on! Includes gigbag, tags etc. Currently strung with Low Tension La Bella flats, but have the.original rounds to throw in too. Price is cash/collected from Newcastle, but can post (have original box).

Giving this a bump - I'll throw in postage for £400 👍

Thanks @Marc S - it's a beaut! 👍

Thanks - it is! They've made some nice tweaks to the design on this one. Couple of demos here: - https://youtu.be/QYTQdiM6J8w?feature=shared https://youtu.be/6a_kwMMN2N4?feature=shared

A bit undecided about moving this lovely bass on, but need to make space for something incoming. It started life as a regular Squier Vintage Modified Short Scale Jaguar bass & has had a few upgrades: - - EMG Geezer Butler PJ set in coral & new Hosco knobs to fit the pots - Hipshot Licenced Ultralite machine heads - Red tort scratchplate - Generic high mass bridge - Fingerboard edges rolled & neck taken to a smooth matte finish I was going for a '60s Jazzmaster look & I think it turned out great! Weighs in at 7lb using luggage scales & plays really nicely. Cash / collection from Newcastle preferred, but postage should be fine with this one...

I know what you mean about the strap button placement - the Gotoh buttons definitely help with that & make it feel more solid on a strap than other Danos I've had. I found it works best slung a little lower & sits nice next to my ever-expanding belly! 🤣👍

Thanks @stewblack - it is. Still have the box it came to me in, so postage is available on this one... 😉👍

Ha! Yeah - they are 29.75" scale. Here's the closest thing I've found to an official spec on the UK distributor's site - https://www.jhs.co.uk/products/danelectro-longhorn-bass-red-hot

Bit of a feeler this one - I'm still a bit undecided on selling it, but need to make way for something incoming. This is the new version of the Longhorn which adds binding, an F Hole & souped up pickups to the mix. Looks / plays / sounds great & is really light! I bought it new & since I had it I did this: - - Replaced stock tuners with Gotoh SD90s - Swapped out the strap buttons for Gotoh Contemporary ones, which makes it feel a lot more stable on a strap - Strung with Ernie Ball flats. They are the 'Group 2' 45-105 set - Took the gloss neck finish back to matte & rolled the fingerboard edges. There's a slight bit of finish wear on the E string side of the neck, but it's just cosmetic. Overall it makes it feel a lot more comfortable than it did out of the box I'll do this posted in the UK all in for the price, but a cash / collection deal in Newcastle would be preferred Pics: -

Sold! 👍
