Since the topic came up I started wondering so checked mine. I got the same, 33 5/8 on the long scales and 30.5 on the shortie V.

Did they offer a medium scale too at any point?  I've heard them referred to before but always assumed people were talking about the long scales being slightly under 34.

I had both versions of the aluminum Kramer 8s. The second version with the more normal body I really liked. Had 8 saddles and I actually thought it was a long-scale u til I measured it. Heavy....and a purple raspberry color.

I DO have a unfnshed, medium scale alumnum Kramer that was a baritone guitar prototype. Got it from a family member of the Kramer founder years ago. Don't recall the exact scale length.
