Ampeg AEB-1 body dimensions

Recommended Posts

Bit of a long shot- is anyone out there lucky enough to own an Ampeg AEB-1 scroll bass? If so would you mind measuring the body for me? I’m thinking about my next build and a AEB inspired (but much simplified) bass is on my mind.

I’m looking for body dimensions; I’ve obtained a decent plan drawing for the body but it’s not to scale. I’m happy to base the size of the body on a Precision Bass but it’d be nice for accuracy to have the correct body size. Thanks in advance.

If no one here can help then there's a long and active thread on TB about Ampeg scroll basses - https://www.talkbass.com/threads/love-of-ampeg-and-other-scroll-basses-part-2.1044767/page-68. Lots of AEB-1 owners on there who may be able to help. Visual comparison with P-bass below might be useful as a guide.
