Is there a 37”, non-multiscale, 4 string bass?

Does such a thing exist and if so who makes it? I play guitar in drop F and want a bass guitar that can track an octave lower.

Rondo did a run of 37" straight scale Brice basses, maybe ask if they plan on restocking or try to hunt a used one down.

Carl Thompson builds a 34, 36, and 38.

I have a feeling almost any other custom builder would be cheaper than Carl Thompson lol

If this is for tracking, might be easier to just get a multi-scale.

While longer scales tend to make the B string (or, in this case the F string) sound better, they also tend to thin out the D and G strings, giving a more ganked overtone.

Dude is so cool. He let me come by his house just to see where and how he builds. So many cool artifacts in that man's basement.

AFAIK there isn't anything out there that you can buy off the shelf. Custom only.

Forever upset that Amos Williams from Tesseract jumped ship to Dingwall because otherwise we might've gotten this beauty from Ibanez. 37" LACS BTB
