The one in the picture is the same scale as a standard electric bass ~36 inches. I find it easier to play than a regular electric bass.

I've been taking lessons since June on a real doghouse. Real double basses and most electrics that mimic them are ~ 41 inch scale. So the strings are longer and they're also thicker. Because of the longer scale, the fingering is different from electric bass.

Both are a heck of a lot of fun.
