Well, Silvie can stand behind you and do it. Oh actually, she has the devils handedness hasn't she - ok, she can stand in front! 12 minutes ago, Happy Jack said: I'm glad you mentioned that they're shortscale necks. It never even occurred to me to ask, and I just assumed that these were longscale for some reason. Didn't occur to me until I put it on the sofa to take a picture and there is my Ibanez 1505 on the side of the sofa, and I thought 'oh its short'. Didn't actually occur to me playing it. I will measure it in a bit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Long of horn, short of scale. I've had a couple and love them. As a single neck they are eye-catching enough but a double neck will certain command attention. They have a certain sound that is so cool IMO. They are made from a material called Masonite which is basically hardboard. That and the hollow body made them so light but not especially robust. I currently have a Dano '56 single cut - another shorty that sounds and plays exactly the same as the Longhorn but with a different body shape.

alyctes Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 Sounds like a result, though TBH I'm not sure who actually wound up with it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is on its slow way back to him from here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
