My latest GIO is a bass (taking a guitar break); the GARTB20 & sports a shorter scale length (30.3"). I would have preferred a red finish but this one was fresh out of the box when I walked in store. After trying, the playability & tone was above average for the money & I'd thought it was an Indonesian craftsmanship but it's from the current pool of Chinese GIOs. It seems that the Chinese hands are more meticulous when it comes to finishing as the GIOs I've played recently are free from smudges & lift-off marks. I won't pass any shorter-scaled bass opportunities as they are more suitable for me.
