An EUB typically has much smaller after-length both in the pegbox and below the bridge. And a stumpy tailpiece. This also can significantly affect the way a string feels ... it's "give", stretchiness and flexibility. And makes the EUB sustain like a slab.

If the string length is the same, the actual "tension" is and must be the same.

What brand your EUB?
