Kingstons tend to be 35" scale, except for the Saratoga which is 34". MTD's can be either (535 = 35" 5 string, 634 = 34" 6 string). I know he prefers the 35" scale when working with a low B, but MTDs are custom built, so they do crop up as 34" and 35" spec; though he tends to know what works and builds to that, meaning they are much more standardised than say Fodera or other customer luthiers that let you play with every aspect of specification. This way you always know you are getting a great MTD, and the woods really play a role...
