See that's what I would have thought too, but the 35" scale 4-strings appear to have the same pickup spacing as the 34". If you look at a pic of a 435TW next to a 5LX it's pretty noticeable.

My 4 string Euro is a 35". To me so far, there's a big difference between the 34 and 35. String tension, overall feel. I am really used to the 34 so the 35 is quite a different world for me.

Thanks man. Yeah I'm getting that feeling....this place is a GREAT hang!

Appreciate the "likes" everyone.

By the way,..
I think my request to you got buried a while back, but, I was wondering if you could possibly post pictures of the neck-through portion of your Forte? It looks awesome with the stripes!
 
Trust me, I'd play one if a shop stocks Spectors near me haha. Feel like ordering a used one from GC online and then returning it to my nearby GC after trying it :D and then get a sweet one from BassCentral if I like it.

Which one do you want to try? I'll be happy to drive over to Bass Central and play it for you. It's just across town from me. ;)
 
WOW..Those are 3 of the nicest Sectors Ive seen-no less together! Wicked nice collection....Props to you my friend!
My Czech Spec will arrive Friday...

Oh I can. The B-String on the 35" models besides having less flab also has a little more punch... a little more clarity.

I really heard this clearly with the Coda-5 and the new Coda-5-35 at NAMM. There's clearly a little more articulation to the B-string on a 35" because with the added tension the vibration pattern of the string when the note is played is tighter. It translates the frequencies of the note more precisely.

+1 exactly this^ :bassist:
