mistermikev Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 Hello, as the title questions... any issue with taking a 34" scale bass fretboard... and reslotting the first fret into a nut... taking off 1.9xxx for the first fret and use this for a 32.x" scale bass? Should work no? Possible issues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtisa Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Don't see why not. As long as you don't mind having a 23-fret fretboard, if you snip off the 1st fret from the 34" scale table on the left and offset every fret-to-fret measurement by one you get 32" (plus a bit) scale length on the right: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistermikev Posted March 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 well, my orig plan is for a 22 so... that'd work. Thanks for the response. I suppose one drawback would be that you aren't going to be switching to another neck... then again it's only .092 off. Likely could make that up with saddles.
