Later in life I find myself drawn to the pointies

Being 6'4" my 28.6" scale Ibanez Mikro Bass must look like I am playing an ukuele. 

 

Luckily my new favorite is a 30" scale, that with a big body that has its bridge placed like it would typically be on a guitar, that is a good deal in on the body from the edge, and 6 inline tuners headstock (it's a Fender Bass VI clone), it is actually as big as most regular 34" scale basses would be.

 

Even if frankly I couldn't care less, I mean Stanley Clarke is probably even taller than me, and definitely got a lot larger hands, still his prefered electric bass is a 30" scale, and he seems to be doing a lot better than just regularly great.

 

And I am sure there are huge guys who play 24.75" Gibson scale guitars too and are doing great doing so.

 

Also plenty of famous rock stars that looks terribly ridiculous regardless of what instrument they happen to play.

 

If looks was that important to me I would have become a model, not a musician.

 

Last I checked you don't hear music with your eyes.
