I've strung my T40 BEAD in the past. Sounded like:

Recordings are a bit old and at a low bit rate, but you can get an idea of what it sounds like. The strings were some sort of D'Addario's but I can't remember what style. I had to get extra longs to make up for the string thru body setup. I had to widen the hole though the bridge just a tiny bit, "V" cut the nut and adjust intonation. Didn't even have to do a truss rod adjustment.
