From 1:05 in this lip-synced performance of "Sunny Afternoon" on Top of the Pops, 1966, Pete Quaife is seen playing a short scale Danelectro Shorthorn bass.

Dave Davies remembers: "It sounded great, but had no bottom end. It was a very twangy sounding instrument— like a bass version of the banjo—and it was only good for certain things."
