34-35" scale EUBs   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #2582 of 2964 |
Hello fellow bottom dwellers,

I wonder if it would be possible to make a list of EUBs with 34" to 35"
scale length. My philosophy is that this size is a special category of
EUB. "Muscle memory" is great for someone used to fretless bass guitars.
The challenge is to identify those that play well and sound good.

Thus far, I know of the following that are available commercially:

Azola Gypsy
Big Kydd
Zeta Crossover

Then, there are a couple of instruments I think of more as "upright bass
guitars" with the same scale length, but these would not be good for
bowing:

Barker Bass
Dean Pace

Am I leaving anything out?

Thanks!
Michael Yoder
