How small?
If you want smaller than 30" short-scale, have a look at the travel basses from[url=http://www.fernandes.co.jp/products/zo.html]Fernandes[/url]. The Pie-Zo (also known as the Nomad in the US) is only 25½" scale and has a built-in amp and speaker. Pignose used to do one too, but it's not currently listed on their web site, although if you may be able to find a second had one.
I have the HK version of the Pie-Zo. It's a very playable instrument:
