Any owner of Ampeg short scale Dan Armstrong bass?

I have a clear lucite one. I've converted to, and use it as, a piccolo. It makes a great piccolo bass.

 

I like the necks on these too. The body is a bit uncomfy (and heavy), but what the hey, it scores major cool points in my book. Wouldn't want to use it all the time, and never was hugely impressed with it as a "real" bass, but it's great to have in the quiver.

What amazes me with that bass is the upper fret acess (though it would come handier with a guitar). I can see how a "real" bassist would want a normal scale bass for everyday work. Being primarly a guitarist, it is a nice little bass to have.

Got my plexi ADA4 just last week-

This is a serious bass with superb tone.

I'm getting into the short-scale, and it is amazing how toneful the instrument is.

Personally I think it's also one of the coolest looking instruments around, but that aside, the sound from this is BIG.

So happy I got it.
