Double Bass question about scale length

[shrimpchowmein]

not sure if this is the right forum, but it was wondering if anyone knows what the scale length in inches is of a 3/4 sized upright bass? thanks!

You might do better asking in the DB forums; I believe it's 41- 1/2".

Indeed 41.5" is pretty common, although expect variations of an inch or even more. Generally 39" or lower is a 1/2 size bass. There is no definitive standard.
