33" Scale Six Strings?

[needmoney]

Who has one? What's out there? Small boutique manufacturers preferred.

My Conklin is. Roscoe does it. I'd think almost all boutique guys do it.

My bad, 33".......Bee, Stambaugh, Ken Lawrence, and CB. If you're willing to ditch the low B, most other luthiers would probably be willing.

Fodera

Here's Tony Grey with a 33" sixer:

Every single one of the 33" scale Foderas I've played has had a great B, for what it's worth.

Fodera were the first guys that popped into my head after seeing a 33" scale MG 6 string they made.

Luthiers Access Group has this one...

My Shuker Single Cut Bolt-On is a 33"er.
Hand made, for a very reasonable price by Jon Shuker here in the UK.

Check out his site here

I absolutely adore it, it's so easy to play!

Cheers,

Brubaker. Tim CallowHill also told me he'd do it.

I have been playing this today and I have to say that it was without doubt the easiest playing 6 stringer I have ever encountered.

Incredibly punchy sound as well. (plus the front and side blue LED markers are kinda cool also)

What kind of bass is that, Kevin?

EDIT: Nevermind, it's a Sei.

awesome, when did tony get a 6 string fodera? last i checked he was using a Yamaha TRB 6 string. That thing is the sex.

 

[Bryan R. Tyler]

He's got fretless and fretted 33" Foderas to go along with his 33" Fodera 5s. He said here on TB that the Yamaha was pretty much an experiment- they said they'd make him a bass, but it isn't quite what he wants sonically (sounded a lot like Patitucci IIRC).

r-bass puts out some killer 33 inch scale instruments.
