Have you seen this one? Not sure if it's still for sale but you might want to look into it - it looks nice!

No, I'm not sure that I do. Can you point to a picture of a similar body shape in our club's Showcase section.

That's what it sounded like but I didn't know there were short scale Exploiters.

Reading David's comment, it occurs to me that Dennis may be thinking 32", which is short scale in some circles, rather than 30.75", which is short scale in Alembic terms.

I read "ray" as the fish, and was thinking standard point.

Manta "Ray" could mean an Omega.

We make Exploiter guitars, they are really short scale. I don't recall if there are any short scale basses in Exploiter, but there's nothing preventing it from happening.

Olie; it would take a bit of carving, but it's an interesting idea.

An Omega Scorpion might also fit the manta ray theme.
