Hollow body short scale bass?

I have been trying to find a good hollow body bass for awhile and it seems like there isn't that many out there. Iv e been looking for a hollow body with a short scale neck, humbuckers, and preferably a hardtail bridge of some sort. However a regular scale bass with a hardtail bridge would also be acceptable. I also was looking and found the Dan Armstrong bass which I thought was also pretty cool, but it seems almost like a one of a kind bass that doesn't really have anything like it. Maybe someone knows of a bass that may fit this?

in the line of this club, I'm looking for a hollow body, short scale (28.50-30.5"), free standing bridge with a trapeze style tailpiece and preferrably just 1 pickup at the heel of the neck and a fretless unlined fingerboard. I have seen only a few basses along this line, and none are in current production
