Sound Pure's Take

What a comely and truly unique sounding instrument! If you're one of those players that loves the concept of short-scale but just can't get comfortable on those smaller necks, the 32" scale (not seen very often in the wild) is that Goldilocks feel and sound. So comfortable and easy to play you'll feel like you're getting away with something! The B90 in the bridge has tons of punch and bite, only adding to the growl and sonic richness of Curtis Novak's Thunderbird pickup in the neck. 

From Serek Basses

The Midwestern 2 takes a more modern approach than its sibling, the original Midwestern bass. Updates include a sleek new design with body contours and a lower cutaway for full access to 21 frets. The Midwestern 2 is made up of a lightweight Mahogany body and the same 30.5″ scale Mahogany set neck found on the Midwestern. This bass can also be made in 32” scale, and with either 4 or 5 strings for those looking to extend their sonic range.
