The last one is super-long scale. As to the others, you're gonna contact the respective companies.
By the way, how long is the string path from ball-end to nut?
Finally, don't worry about them being sold for BEADGCF: detuning the highest pair should create no problems (as in, yes they'll be lower-tension than the rest, especially the central three, but you'll probably adapt to it just fine).
I'm guessing neck-dive is a thing here?I picked up one of these used for $200 just for the sheer ludicrousness of it, DSG is apparently the brand…

It’s actually pretty comfortable for what it is, but I was already acclimated to 5-string. Electronics are typical import quality.
I keep a grip on the situation.I'm guessing neck-dive is a thing here?![]()
