Hol long is the diapason for a short scale bass?

The "scale" length of a bass refers to the length of the vibrating string and is measured from the head nut to the bridge. The "normal" scale length for a bass guitar is the 34 inches that Leo Fender used on the original Precision Bass in 1951. A short scale bass generally uses the 30.5 inches that Gibson used on the EB-1, which was introduced two years later. Notable short scale basses include the Dan Armstrong lucite-bodied bass, the Hofner 500 "Beatle Bass," and the Gretsch Broadcaster. Fender Musicmaster and Mustang basses use a 30" scale. The vast majority of basses available use a 34" scale length and most of the short scale basses on the market are student models. Exceptions include Rickenbacker 4000 series basses which use a 33.25" scale. Kubicki X Factor basses and early Alembic basses a use medium scale of 32 inches. The scale length of Gibson's long scale versions of the EB series is 34.5 inches, while it's Thunderbird uses the standard 34" scale. Short scale basses present the bassist with compromises dictated by the physics of the instrument. If the scale of the instrument is shorter and the string diameter remains the same, the string will be at a lower tension. The lower tension causes the strings to feel "floppy." The lower string tension also results in a note with a less complex harmonic content. The tone of the instrument will be duller and "thumpy" or "muddy." Increasing the string diameter to increase the tension also results in a "bassier" sound. It is possible to design around the limitations imposed by the shorter scales. Alembic and Kubicki basses are exceptional instruments both in terms of sound and playability. But because short scale basses are not popular very few manufacturers have dones so. A few professional quality instruments are available from custom builders, such as Landing Guitars and James Guitars and specialty manufacturers like Birdsong Guitars.
