TheGreek Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Many of you will have seen the Hohner Shorty guitar I bought with a plan to convert it to a bass. Fortunately, the BC family has members with existing experience of this instrument and I have been advised (Thanks @lemmywinks ) that some examples have issues with the fretboard positioning. Does anybody have the correct measurements for a 21" fretboard or know where I can obtain these? Thanks peeps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
