Strange short scales?

I call it my George Jetson bass

i've only seen one of these once... it played amazingly well and it was cheaper than a sg reissue (about $700)

There was one on my CL for $600, almost got it. It turned out to be the long scale version though.

Sounds like you want a Danelectro Longhorn. Depends if you can repel kitchiness of that magnitude though.

(not my bass)

Also: YouTube - DANELECTRO LONG HORN bass solo "The Bintangs"

Awesome!

I think I'm going to end up with a dano, maybe not a long horn though.
 
Yeah your collection HAS to be one of my favorites in all of TalkBass Land.
