I zeroed in on the EHB1265MS because I...

    What’s in an inch?

    TL;DR - I am not asking whether Multiscale is worth it because that is subjective, but, since I don’t have the opportunity to test the basses myself, I am wondering the extent of the difference an inch makes on the feel of the B string. — So, after committing to trading in my SR Special 5 and...

    Fanned or Unfanned Fretless?
