Daveox Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I’m looking for a short scale or 3/4 size electro acoustic bass, I have a full length acoustic bass but with the length of neck and sheer size of the body it’s not comfortable to play. do they exist? Would also be interested in just an acoustic bass any recommendations? As always cheap (most affordable) as possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave moffat Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Have a look at the Taylor Mini Bass, I enjoy mine, cheep enough to stick a pickup in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len_derby Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Hi Dave, I’ve got a Stagg AB203CE-N. 30” scale. I bought it used off this forum. I love it for leaving around the house for casual play and practise. I’ve done a couple of acoustic gigs with it too. One unexpected bonus was that it fits in the back of a small hatchback, out of sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casapete Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 A friend of mine has an Ibanez PNB14e, and rates it very highly. 24.75 inch scale, mahogany woods and built in electrics. Bit of a poor mans Taylor GS Mini bass at under £200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Aren't there short scale Ashbory basses (not the rubber fat string things). IIRC there have been a few available on ebay recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of stock at Andertons at the minute though: https://www.andertons.co.uk/bass-dept/bass-guitars/acoustic-bass-guitars/ibanez-acousticbass-mahogany-parlor-body-aeq-2t-preamp-ibanez-under-saddle-pup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
