rivolta duocata bass (short scale alert)

[sonic boogaloo]

great looking bass with more than a nod to rickenbacker.

Cool. Wish it came in 34”scale.
Don’t like short scales.

One of the things I enjoy about TB is being introduced to brands I'd never know. Thanks OP.
Edit... I should have put a pic of the 2 string, left handed bass in the first draft....

I like it.

Things are a bit backward.

I've seen a few short scale designs that could be called Rivolta.

But that one is pleasing to the eye.

Nice looking, but not crazy about only two saddles for four strings. Kinda pricey too.

It’s Rivolting!

Add to that the single ‘51 P pickup and bridge…even on my faux ‘51 I have a dual coil and high mass/four saddle under the covers. But I’m digging the 60’s Italian/Japanese Ric imitation vibe.

Limited quantity run.

Yes, still pricey for what it is.

As the owner of 4 Eastwood basses purchased directly from Eastwood I regularly get their emails.

Some of their products are pretty awesome and some are a bit run of the mill.

Cool, but has that “marketed towards guitarists” vibe that I’m not crazy about.

Love the look of it, but I’m not at all into SS basses. I bought a Rivolta 32” scale bass, and thought overall it was well made,
and sounded fantastic when I replaced the factory roundwounds with flats. But the neck was pencil thin, and my right hand didn’t care for that or the 32” scale, so I sent it back after the free trial period.
