Ibanez 845v 33 inch 5 string £650 South hams

[fiatcoupe432]

This time a 5 string . Bought this to experiment with smaller scale and weird tuning and capo placement 

 It's a great bass but can't keep as all I need is my 6 shirt scale a DB and a p bass for recording purposes. 

Happy to meet anywhere near the south hams , Exeter, Plymouth . I'm also travelling up to Yorkshire next week if anyone is interested

Hi Mike , I haven't tried personally but I don't think it would be much different than a 34" scale , 33 and 34 are pretty close.my main bass is a 6 string 30" and the b strong is enormous.
