YES! Classical guitar spacing is the best. Now if only I could get that along with a radius.......

Personally I'd rather have this one for much less money....but I suppose I am biased.

Headstock is foul. As for scale, it's listed as 30.25". A regular Bass VI is 30". I have no clue what's up with the 18 frets tho...

How often do you guys really play that high up on the neck anyway?

Very rarely but it's still a strange feature. For 3K+, GIMME all dem frets!

I think the theory on an instrument like this is that you'll be playing across the neck instead of up and down.
The old Fender Bass V has only 15 frets as I think do some of the Danelectro basses.
