The AMIGO
Short on length, LOOOONG on tones!
The Amigo combines the well-loved old Shortbass body with Scott’s standard “pocket bass” scale of 25.5” in a TWO pickup model!
Wanted to take a moment to thank you for my amazing little Amigo. I've been playing hard for the past several weeks and couldn't be happier. My bandmates are stoked too—and at least one audience member always notices how tiny she is and comes to ask: "What kind of bass is that?! IT SOUNDS AMAZING!" I have a lot of fun talking you up. :) ~Liana
From $1850.
The Amigo uses the body shape of the old “Scott Shortbass,” giving a happy look and perfect balance. I can make it mild to wild, from simple organic tool to a fancy-topped turquoise-embellished heirloom for a bit more. Either way, it’s the most versatile pocket bass around with its two humbucking soapbars - the same exact pickups and wiring used in the Birdsong Corto2 and C5s. Tonally, it’s a little giant! Each bass is hand built by me in my Adirondack workshop.
