Ken, what are the different mensures on these basses? Even 1/2 inch difference in mensure will have a noticable effect on the tension, as tension varies not directly, but as the square of the scale length.

And as you say, the setup on everything from the nut to the endpin and everything in between, including camber, can make a string feel different.
