HI folks, I am seriously considering adding a 5 string S2 to my collection and have a question for all you 5 string users out there. Which is the best scale length, 34" or 34" 3/4" ? I have read so much about how a longer B string sounds better, but is that really true of such a well made bass, like a Status? Rob has already confirmed that he can make me a headed 34 3/4" scale if required. Thanks for your help.
