I'm getting another bass done by Fodera- a brand new P Bass! I really want to go the route of 17.5mm spacing to match my other basses but I realize this is not at all a popular size in the P Bass world. I've seen that Aguilar makes a 5 string pickup set with this spacing, but I haven't really...
Just measured - my Peavey Grind 6 is 16mm spacing!
I'm surprised! When I play 4 strings I'm very very happy with 19mm spacing.
With 5 strings I really like the stingray spec, whatever it is (17? 17.5?)
It turns out that I really love 16mm spacing on a 6. I owned other 6 (and non-octave 8!)...
