    Would be interested in this because I have another multiscale and love the tension and comfort of fanned frets.  I just wish it came in better colors.  I think this would look great in silver burst, black, red, ect.  (Just a hint, nudge nudge, wink wink..)

      Hi there
      I just bought one and I must say, I'm very pleased!
      Is it possible to Name the exact D'Addario string sets that fit this bass? When looking for reserve strings, I got really confused.
      It seems that it is not as easy to find correct strings for multiscale basses as for regular 4 or 5 string basses...

      Would the NYXL45130SL or  EPS170-5SL or EXL170-5SL set fit? I was not able to find a set on the d'Addario website that exactly matched the specs you gave above...

      Thanks for any answer!

        I don't think they sell this exact string set to end consumers...I wondered the same thing when I first got mine. I ended up going with Payson stainless steel strings that are actually designed for 34-37" scale length. They are perfectly balanced string to string and otherwise just fantastic. So much better than the stock strings IMO. SIT strings and of course Dingwall make proper string packs too. I don't think you'll look back.

          I've been playing bass in a church band for the last 15 years or so. I'm a guitar player, by default, but they needed a bassist. I played a 4 string Carvin J style Bass, then added a 5 string Sire Marcus Miller, both excellent instruments. Then I saw Leland Sklar talking about his Dingwall multiscale 5 string, and the difference between the resonance between that and the standard scale bass was pronounced. That Dingwall was north of $5K, too much for my blood, so I searched for alternatives on line. This LTD grabbed my attention, and after musing about it for 8 hours, I ordered it. I was not disappointed, at all! Right out of the box, it felt right. The pickups sound great, the neck is sleek and very playable with the fanned frets. The wood is beautiful, a reasonable weight for a guitar this size. The one small adjustment in playing is on the first fret of the lowest strings, where I find part of my hand behind the nut, and it feels strange. Other than that, if you're looking for this style of bass, this is an excellent choice!
