bass strings
allright ya'll.... I've been playing bass a little and I need new strings. The thing is that its been SO long since I bought bass strings (probably
5+ years) that I'm not sure what gage/brand to get.
Back in the say I used to use GHS Boomers but that was a LONG time ago. I want a string for a decent chunky hardcore sound while tuned to standard E.
Suggestions?

i've certainly tried quite a few different brands/sets but i always come back to these. been playing them for quite a long time. takes a few hours of
playing till i get the tone i like but after that they're perfect.

fire, but I?m just not close enough to get the job done.? George Carlin

Yeah, those Super Slinkies do the trick.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

the last set I bought were boomers because it was the only set in the whole stupid store that ran a .95 e string.
I have a brass nut and it wont fit anything larger...
I forget what brand I used to get but I think they were ernie ball, but it's been so damn long.
my bass runs really light strings but gets amazing highs.
