I'm thinking about getting into bass and I am drawn to the short scale hollow body viola style basses. I've done a little research and there are actually more choices than I originally thought: Hofner, Brownsville (Sam Ash), Rogue (MF), Jay Turser, Douglas and Brice (both at Rondo) all offer this style of bass at a beginner's price. Anyone have any experience with any of these makes and models? The Jay Turser looks like it would have a great Beatles vibe to it, but I also like the look of the Black Brice that Rondo sells.
I would love to get my hands on one before buying, but I'm not sure if any are available locally. I may have to take a leap of faith and just order one online.
Thanks!
Tom
