Re: short scale mandolin
Shorter scale mandolins are great for making chord work easier -- even for people who don't have small hands. Lots of vintage mandolins -- not just bowlbacks -- have a shorter scale. 13-7/8" is standard for arched-style mandolins, but on the international market you'll find many other options.
