What is a short scale guitar?
A short scale guitar is one with a shorter neck and fingerboard (and usually a smaller body as well). The shorter the scale length, the shorter the strings from the nut to the bridge. This in turn impacts the guitar's ease of playability as well as its sound. The scale (length) of the neck (and, ultimately, the strings) determines two major aspects of a guitar's personality: the distance between the frets, and the tension (or tightness) of the strings.In a nutshell, the shorter the scale length, the closer the frets are together. This is a good thing if you have small hands or are a young beginner. Also, many rhythm guitarists, like Elvis Costello, John Lennon and Kurt Cobain, prefer (or preferred) shorter scales when chording. On the other hand, a longer scale length comes in handy when shredding and playing leads in some styles (like those of Malmsteen, Vaughn and Atkins) because it keeps you from "tripping" over your own fat fingers when getting all acrobatic.A guitar's feel is also affected by the tension of the strings. A guitar with a shorter scale length (like the Gibson Les Paul) requires less tension to reach concert pitch than a guitar with a longer scale (like the Fender Strat). This is true, as long as both are strung with the same gauge strings. One advantage of less string tension is a "looser" feel, making bending and vibrato more fluid.So, then, why aren't all guitars built with a shorter scale? Obviously we'd all benefit from that slinky feel, right? Well, guitars with greater tension benefit from a "tighter" sound due to better clarity in their higher overtones. This is often referred to as "twang." Shorter scale guitars also have trouble accepting heavier gauged strings because the slackened tension causes wider vibration and fret buzz.Source(s):http://www.guitarnoise.com/article.php?id=297
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.
Can you convert regular acoustic guitar to an acoustic bass?
NO Bass is longer scale length and much more tension - you will ruin your acoustic. Flog it on Ebay and buy and acoutsic bass While the previous answer is correct to a point (a bass has a longer scale and more tension) I've seen it done by replacing the nut and bridge and using BEAD strings and tuning them to EADG.
