There's a band called Royal Blood, and the bass player sometimes plays a Gretsch G2220 short scale bass. 

Mike Kerr is the bassist/vocalist for Royal Blood and every bass he plays is short scale. Whether it is a G2220, a Fender Starcaster or a Mustang.

The Mikro above is a bit too short scale for my paws. I have a 60's Domino Beatle bass, Epiphone Embassy from the 60's I think, and 2 Hondo Alien's (Kramer duke copies), one fretless, the other.... in pieces. They're all 30" scale.

I use an Ibanez short scale, which is what I need for my CP left hand. 🙄 I guess I don't count. 😁

I'm looking for a short scale 30" with humbuckers, maybe a MM Stingray, I played one and couldn't put it down. Sadly they don't have HH with SS, only single H.

Here's a cheap one. Single coils, but you could replace with stacked HBs.
