I like this guy! Hi ya Nick. Thanks for the review I just bought one from a store who's motto is "The Store that ate your Brain" so I had to get it. Can't wait to try it out on Country & Western which is what my band here in Las Vegas does. Best to you bro. Tod :)
I've just bought a Classic Vibe Mustang Short-scale Bass, and put Gotoh Vintage string tuners and La Bella Flatwound strings. I'm really enjoying it. And, then i went into my fave guitar shop, and lo and behold, there was a JMJ Mustang Short-scale Bass hanging on the shop wall. I'm getting it! Mustang City! ❤❤😂😊
Really cool video, I like your vibe. You will get used to the thumbrest, my first bass was a Fender Musicmaster and it comes in handy. Awesome bass, I want one so bad!
Hey there - tapped ‘unboxing’ into the RU-vid search to see if anyone ‘unboxed’ the mustang and found the rumoured extra black pickguard. Been mulling over ordering one of these bad boys for ages but what to go for, black or blue finish? Now if there was a black pick guard in there too that might just be the clincher. Well that’s what brought me to your vid. Rubbish ‘unboxing’ Great review! Good job lad 👍 So did you get an extra [black] pickguard in the box? 😂
I totally get that people want to wear their stuff out themselves, but it would take decades for an instrument to get road worn from use, wouldn't it? If it feels great and you like the look, who cares? I don't have enough time left in my life to wear an instrument to that level. I'd get it if it felt and sounded right.
Sounds like you’re more concerned about looks than you are sound and playability. Spend a few less hours looking at yourself in a mirror and a little more time learning how to shred the damn thing youngster!
heh the playing demo towards the end didnt do it for ya? lots of talking up front, but its also an unboxing vid, not a playing demo? feel free to make your own!
enjoyed your video - thanks for putting it out there - but I gotta say I think that's the only 12min+ demo/impression video I've seen where the playing doesn't start until 8:47 🙂
The bass sounds amazing, and short scales basses are dope. Both the Beatles and the Stones recorded their classic albums with short scale basses, so why would anyone disparage short scales??
