Building a thinline style bass for my son. Twin f holes and j bass style pickups and electrics. Am going to try and counter any balance issues with putting the strap button on the neck plate. Will take a little but enjoying the experience with the little fella. Building a thinline with P90s also but will show bass at the moment. This building thing is addictive.

I am going to try 34" as this is what son already plays and as he is 9 I did not want to confuse him with a different scale. All along my inspiration has been the B&G big and little sister guitars and I thought, the 34" scale worked for them so why not try it.
I believe Squire used 34'' on their Tele shaped Bass as well. Not like the dive can get much worse than an SG style bass anyways.
