The top one is a refinish of my wife's Washburn guitar

The bottom one is a custom job I did for a friend in a steampunk theme. Going to be making a more steampunk guitar or bass soon

Interesting... This multiscale model: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_AL6P7I

They say: 40 inches. I take it, it's the whole length, right? What means - it's 2" shorter, than Ibanez GSRM20 Mikro, yet it has got 24 frets. How come? Just because of the fanned frets?

The fretboard and the body is "one piece". Is there a rod inside? Is it tunable? Hm....

They don't show the head stock, so it might be a small one. The fretboard will be roughly same size-ish, at least at the bottom (the fanned frets at top will of course be different). 

Scale length is measured from the middle of the nut to the middle of the bridge (or to twelfth fret and from twelfth fret). For instance a 34" scale length will be 17" at the twelfth, and 17" from twelfth to bridge)

Can't tell if it has a truss rod for adjustment (no head stock shown...) but most have now.

Buying from Ali I'd put in new pickups and tuners at the least. The pickups will very likely have ceramic magnets on the bottom, which aren't as powerful as others and won't last as long (and sound will be a little more muted I find).
Mainly I play guitar, but sometimes bass, too. For this I use at the moment a Yamaha RBX 375.
As an interface I use the Maya 22+ USB.
And then I have a lot of other gear 😉
