Default Pono Mini Bass revision

After posting our new "Mini Bass" we have received many interesting and constructive suggestions. Although wanting to make a small size bass, with a short scale length, apparently our design was too small.

In answer to some inquiries, our bass has a real steel string bass set (not rubber). We are not making what is called an "Ukulele Bass"

Here are some design changes
Body width: 11 7/16"
Scale length: 28 1/2" (current demo's were favorable, but needs a longer scale)
Pickup: saddle piezo and/or electromagnetic.

We probably should have waited a little longer to submit our plans. Sorry for the confusion.
