![]() Here's the three 35" 4 strings I have so far. All will have p-width necks and asside from my T-40 and my first bass (a much modded MIM P) they will all be 35", 4 strings. The end result is that by the end of the year I will have downsized from 11 or so electric basses to 6. After I get this bass I will probably turn the Carlo into BEAD to better serve the gospel music I've been playing on Sunday mornings. The Lowdown mod turned out so well, I'm having Tim build a new 35", 70's style Telebass to house the two darkstars that formerly resided in a Decade-style parts bass I had built. It's like a NBD! Low Down Bass overhauls my Jazz! Then last year I asked Tim Seisser of "Lowdown Bass" make a conversion neck for my parts jazz based on the neck on my Carlo. NBD: Wendler Electrocoustic (C Cedar-Bodied 35" Fretless) Completely worth the 5 instruments (including my last 5 string) I sold to pay for it. ![]() ![]() My Wendler arrived last year and it's also amazing. It immediately became my most played bass and I so loved the 35" scale that I decided to get a similarly scaled and dimensioned fretless. ![]() Lakland lines but with a little something extra. Put it on layaway and brought it home a few months later. I was initially drawn by the 1.75" nut (rare on boutique instruments) but the "35 scale was amazing. Two years ago I came across a used Carlo in Carl Pedigo's basement-of-Lakland workhop. A bit of a repost but I've also been completely won over by the 35" 4 string thing.
