In the market for a short scale bass - show me what you have!

I have would go for the music master bass that's been up for sale, but it's way out of my price range, to give you an idea of my budget

Thanks!

there is plenty out there.
I personally only have short scales
Danelectro
Gibson SG
eastwood classic 4
hofner beatle bass
Burny flying V
Ibanez roadstar II (med scale)

Ive had a hagstrom HB4, that was nice, they are still available.

I have a righty Danelectro Longhorn and a lefty Brice 5-string(from Rhondo) I'd sell. Both are strung right-handed presently. I swapped the stock bridge on the Bryce for a Kahler, it's definitely not a pro job, but it functions.

I might sell my Warwick 32" 5-string also. I haven't played it since I got the Stambaugh.

Cheap Danno at GC - not sure if all of 'em were short scale, but if so this could be a great place to start....

I played that bass 2 days ago. Gc in Totowa is 5 minutes from where I work. It's in decent shape and plays pretty good. But it is not a short scale bass. The Dano DC's are 34" scale.
