@artanisaf Ah, all right. That makes sense.

@RaygunShaun It’s from the Beatles from ‘Live at The BBC’

@4111august It’s the Beatles’s “All My Loving”, but it doesn’t sound like the Beatles.

I prefer a full 35″ scale

What Beatles album is this from? Is it a bootleg?

I no longer own the bass. However, you are correct that it is a bit neck heavy because of the overall size and design.

How’s the balance of the bass? the strap peg is pretty far back, is it neck heavy at all?
