Electric player using 1/2 size bass.

[Michael Case]

I see several problems with this. First is you'll have to adjust to a 3/4 sized bass anyway and getting a 1/2 size really doesn't help the transition. Secondly, when you want to get a 3/4 bass it will be hard to sell the 1/2 size bass since it's not a desirable instrument due to it's smaller size.

If it's not too late, cancel the 1/2 size order and get a 3/4 sized bass. It's not that hard of a transition. Trust me, I went from EB after about 15 years to DB and while it does take time, the size difference is quickly manageable.
