Been wanting a 30" scale Fender for a while.

Was wondering how the new Coronado's differ from the originals, if anyone knows.
And is it likely they will play with the same probs reported with 30" scale basses, like hard to tune with harmonics, and less clarity and punch than the regular scale length basses.

Are they on the market yet? Maybe someone can review theirs for us.

Thanks.

I've seen an played a Coronado. The one I spent time with was black and had a bound neck. Initially I liked the sound better than the Starcaster but in the end got the Starcaster. The fit and finish on both basses was excellent. One problem is trying to find a case for either of them--you'd think Fender would have thought of that. I ended up getting a padded gig bag as an interim measure. The thirty inch scale seemed adequate and I didn't notice any loss of tone.
