tauzero Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 "Like a telecaster bass but in a 34” long scale length.". Um, doesn't the Telecaster bass have a 34" scale length? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I think what they mean is that it is based on all those horrible telecaster-shaped basses produced in the far east in the 60s and 70s that were often shorter than 30" scale length. The actual Fender Telecaster Bass doesn't have the same body shape as the Telecaster Guitar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mybass Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) Jansen…big name in NZ from the 1960’s……my start up playing days in Wellington NZ had me getting a Jansen tube bass amp. My drummer/cabinetmaker built two robust 4x12 cabs for me. I was probably loud 😄 The amp was great except, the tubes hung upside down in the amp’s open back enclosure and would rattle loose, (due to my volume 😜) Great idea of mine, turn the amp upside down so the tubes would be sitting upright which was sort of a bad idea because the top mounted strap handle became a pivot for the amp to ‘self turn’ on and there would be several looks of horror and calls to me as the amp teetered on the edge of falling off the bass stack……a learning curve eh…..never lost the amp of the stack though.
