i was looking at my ROMO BRONCO today, and then i looked over at my unused bass neck.

then i thought: "hey! I've got an unused bass neck, and i like the look of my bronco. I SHOULD MAKE A BASS TO MATCH MY GUITAR."


so here's my idea, and im leaving it up to the board to decide yes or no.

bronco guitar sized body
single-coil pickup
bronco guitar pickguard
comp black.

so basically this:

but in bass form, and with white robroe.

what do you think?

Yep.

Go for it!

fucking yes

I support this plan.

Is a guitar body long enough to get the bridge right? I see that they have it all the way at the bottom. Is it a regular guitar body with a long neck? Sounds like a cool idea.

Romo sounds better than Moronco, but Little is also a great name for a guitar.

Will the Bronco neck fit in a standard guitar neck pocket? I remember mine having a super long heel.

dgnr8 and astro, thats what i was thinking:

make a bronco guitar sized body, but with the neck pocket and such different, so as to accompany a 34" scale and bass neck. ill ask robert(original) the next time i go what we must do to accomplish this.


any ideas for the color scheme? i personally would like to stay with the comp. black, but if anybody can provide evidence to the contrary, i'd be happy to oblige.

white with gold comp stripe?
lame, but random, i still like the black w/ white stripe idea

what don't you guys use a MANLAND size bass already?!

lol

j.k.

bronco bass is coo'...

for a girl.


har har har.

anybody with a bronco/stang bass that would be willing to do a tracing for me?

plus, do you guys think that the 34" neck will look odd with the short-scale body?

Even if it doesn't look weird... it'd probably have some serious neck dive.
But my guess is that it would probably look a bit odd.

My stang bass already has neck dive, actually. Word of caution, I guess.

i can trace my squier body for you.

pm me so i can get some deets...

my bronco bass and mustang body are the same size and shape
