Dunable Guitars mostly deliver 35 scale basses.
But if you want, they make you 34 aswell.
This is my Dunable Yeti, Matte Black, mahogney wood.
The neck is super quick, no dive, and got hipshot bridge. Can handle down tuning really well, I play in drop C with 115 strings on the E. And its really punchy and articulate.
It got Dunable P/J pickups, which sounds massive.
And a series/parallel switch.
It also have luminlays for the fretboard. Pretty cool.
Still interested in more 35 scales now.

What do club members see as the chief benefit of an extended scale 4-string tuned to EADG.
Is it the ability to get more 'piano-like' tones?
If so, what strings do you use?
Unfortunately, I can't join the club since my 35" scale bass is a 5-string ESP jazz. But it is tuned EADGC, which means I'm interested in what others see as the benefits of an extended scale, other than the most commonly cited one, namely, a tauter B string.

I've been posting this all over the boards.
35" Dean Skull Crusher. Saw it, fell in lust and made myself walk away for a few days before even laying hands on it. The more I play it, the more I enjoy it.
