small bodys ?

[hesslich]

I have been playing a spector for a while and have gotten used to the smaller body shape/size. Could anyone let me know what other companys/basses are small bodied or have a similar shape?

was it the warwick streamer that was designed by Stu Spector himself? I think it was...

Pedulla T-bolt/T-bass and Rapture, Fender American Jazz Deluxe, Sadowsky Modern 5, Curbow. Warwick makes some small ones, but they fill them with lead.

I too, enjoy smaller bodies on basses, so hats off for making the right choice.

Other basses include warwick, MTD, many ibanez basses (SR series) I think the bongo has a pretty manageable size, there are tons, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

The Roscoe LG model is actually a down-sized body. Many people think that the SKB and Century body styles are "bigger", but they're actually the "standard" bodies. The LG features a carved top and a smaller overall footprint that your average bass...not exactly like a Spector, but similar in some ways.

Most warwicks / rockbass, The Streamer and the Spectors share the same design, Ibanez SR, Schecters, ESPs... Lots of modern style basses are small bodies, I prefer them too.

Smallest of all would be headless Steinbergers, and Warwick Thumbs.

The standard body style offered by Pete Skjold is a very ergonomic and small body.

I would also agree that the Roscoe LG body style is one of the smaller bodies out there as well.

For me the Skjold body style works better because of the longer upper horn. For a small bodied bass, it just seems to fit and balance on me better than any other I've tried.

Well if your into vintage or remakes you could always go with a Mustang, love my dads old Fender Stang', but im a big guy so it really looks small bodied

The Cort Curbow has a tiny body compared to all the other basses I've played. I own the fretless 4 string version.

The Status Kingbass has a very small body.

The Birdsong Cortofusion body shape is very small and easy to hold - I haven't held a Cortobass, so I'm not sure that they're quite as small - they seem a little wider through the body to me.

Saw a cool peavey cirrus that was smaller than a sterling a few weeks ago.
