Good Bass for Women and Men with smaller hands.

I know that my bass of choice gets alot of flack from people on site,
but i have been playing for many years, and the Fender Squire Affinity
Series is a wonderful bass, that has caused me no issues in the 4 years
that I have owned it. I play the Jazz Version, but the P style is
basically the same with the exception of the pick ups. This bass
has a 34 inch scale, and a very slim, very fast neck. I have very
small hands, and have tried to play many more expensive Basses with
fatter necks, and just can not reach my fingers around the neck to get
good positon on the E string for alot of notes. This bass has no
issues, and even my 16 year old daughter has no issues playing this
bass, and her hands are much smaller than mine. It has a nice
rich sound, with little buzz. If you hook it up with a good amp
you will be very happy with this guitar. There is also a short
scale version fo this, though i am not sure squire still makes it, but
it is called a Bronco, it is not quite the quality, but awsome if
your arms are not long enough to reach the end of a 34 inch scale
easily. You have to remember that you must be gefortable when
you are learning, or else you will just give up when you have little to
no success.
