MoonBassAlpha Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Anyone tried one of these yet? Always been a sukka for the LP junior double cutaway shape, and been thinking of short scale lately. Looks like the Antoria brand is getting a bit of a relaunch. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ANTORIA-NEW-MODEL-SHORT-SCALE-BASS-GUITAR-New-Yorker-Les-Paul-Junior-Case/252489393286?_trksid=p2047675.c100009.m1982&_trkparms=aid%3D888007%26algo%3DDISC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D40800%26meid%3D71dadd87a3ec4924bfe9927241d1b4d0%26pid%3D100009%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D2%26sd%3D282241323057 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 That's really handsome, shame it's a short scale - I understand the neck dive would be horrible on a 34" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrumpymike Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I bet that will be nice and it's a good price including case. I had the Gibbo LP DC and the balance was slightly better than my SG but still not great - which is why I ended up selling them both.

scrumpymike Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Interesting... found the Antoria website and there's no mention of this bass - just a 6-string guitar. Only finding it FS on Fleabay too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchbinixica38 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) I just bought one of these, I have to say it’s excellent. nice weight and build quality is superb. no neck dive at all. the hum bucker pickup is nice and even across the neck, the low E is thunderous! i play in a band called The Geckos out in Spain with Original Zombies drummer Hugh Grundy. i use it professionally, two to three gigs a week, stays in tune great, and I love the short scale. came with soft gigbag and a free T-shirt! ebay, tim gentle music. a great instrument. just can’t find a hard case to fit ,apparently the TKL 08824 is a perfect fit bit can’t find one in uk or Spain? simon Edited July 10, 2019 by Dutchbinixica38 Typo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
