Thanks man, hope you guys had a good time in nashville. Just let me know when you want to do the 33" LEP.
 
how are the B strings on a 33" scale bass? still sound great?

Dang! Now I really want an LEJ! This is an interesting topic here about 33'' scale basses, as it destroys the old stereotype that you can't have a good b string unless you have a 35. I have always enjoyed the B string on my 34'' Sadowskys, and am itching to try out an LEJ 33'' I think it is more about the quality of the workmanship than the scale length.
 
Yes!!!!It's the best B string period.It is just perfect tension wise.Every other 34" scale b string didn't sound right!These LEJ's are something special.I'm spoiled for life now reguarding bass guitars.Everything else is now sub-par!!!!!!

i definitely have found that my LEJ has the best B string of any bass i've owned...and i've had quite a few!

No Doubt!!!!!!!! :cool:
 
I put on the Sadowsky Blue SS and I must say I am really digging them! not as bright as the DR's or SIT but just the right brightness, punch, even sounding across the board and feels great. Thanks LowBSix!
 
I must say I was surprised to see these 33" LEJ 5'vers.

You can attribute the good B string to the stable-tough-as-nails 3 piece neck, I bet.

When not playing, I use mine for home protection al-la El Kabong style.

(and if you don't know who El' Kabong was, then you're too young).

I saw one at GC, very nice bag the only issue for me is the storage, I'd like to be able to throw my Lil Mark II in the case. I have a Igig bag now it has great storage but not as rigid as I would like , as the Continental or Incase bag. I wish someone would marry the two together for about $150 or less.
Anybody seen these yet?
