The older ones with the single humbucker and 34" scale RULEZ. I miss mine. If you find one buy it. Im not big on short scales so I didnt dig the others.

My bandmate has one of the cheaper ones and it sounds nice. Not enough mids/highs for me but a good thumpy bottom end. Plays pretty well too.

This is what i've been looking for but all i'm finding are short scale. is there a difference in tone between the short & long scale or is just feel thing?

To broaden the spectrum--The Epi Jack Casady is a killer semi-hollow.
