Hamer Slammer 3/4 Scale Bass
Hammer Slammer Bass
I enjoy playing bass but in the studio moving from guitar to bass and back to guitar was driving me crazy because of the scale of the fretboard. The bass is much longer and wider and my hands were confused. I found this bass on eBay for a good price new and I have used it in the studio ever since. It's also the same scale as the Ovation acoustic bass so practicing on one and moving to the other is pretty easy. I don't know if it's inherent in the 3/4 scale necks but I have noticed that I can't play it as hard or with the authority that I can with the full scale bass. A little thinner in tone too but it suits my needs well.
