anybody know any? I'd like to have the higher string, cuz I do a lot of soloing, but I think a five string neck is perfect.

Yup, got one of my 5 strings set up like that. Great for doing some high end chording now and then.

Just buy a 4 string set and a C string single to match. You might need to get a new nut, but I'm getting away without it right now.

a new nut? heck, if it doesn't fit, I'll just stick a piece of paper under the string. works like a charm on my other bass.

Thats a bad idea, paper nuts...

Get a 5 banger, buy some D'Addario 4 string sets, buy some high C strings, and then get a set up. Voila.

I'm sure there are other brands than D'Addario, but they're the only ones I know of off the top of my head
