Soz Runs and hides under blanket [/quote] Post ironically summed up by the "Soz". Haha They're definitely a love/hate thing, thats for sure. I've personally just received a set off a fellow basschatter who didnt get on with them. Neon orange! Oh yes! They'll be going on tonight. They look the dog's, just whether they play well or not, I've yet to find out. Edited June 10, 2011 by thatgrantboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsfreddy2003 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 (edited) Can anyone advise a good supplier in the States for all brands of strings and not just DR's? I normally use Elixir's.

thatgrantboy Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 So I managed to source some off a kind forum member in the wanted section, and here's how mine look! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Finally ordered some green ones. When they get here I shall load them onto my Status Streamline (if I can find the little grub screws for use with normal strings). The bass has green LEDs too. Should look disgusting!!!

charic Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Hmm which ones on my Yammy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] That should look very sick......im mean slick :-) Ive recently brought some Black beauties. im not sure how they directly compare with the Neons but i dont like these either. I think they both feel a bit brittle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickle Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Does anyone know where to get these from for less. i remember someone pointing out on here to get them from a place in the states because even after shipping they where still cheaper then over here.

observer Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Just put on fresh set of oranges on my tribby G&L. So far sounds better than old set of d'addrio XL's. Gig tonight, we'll see then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oopsdabassist Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Had a set of greens on my black Yammy for about 9 months, love em! using our new LED lights last night seemed to make em flouresce like crazy, will know for sure when I see the pics the Drummers SWMBO took, watch this space Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidanhallbass Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 does anyone use their own blacklight for these or just rely on the venue? If you do use your own, any recommendantions? Ive seen 40w strip lights for about £30.. just wondered if they are strong enough to make the most of the neon effect. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassmonkey Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Which colour should I put on this? figured with a UV strip light on my mic stand would look groovy.... a. Red b. Green c. Yellow d. Orange e. Are you freakin joking? Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highfox Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Recon your (SG?) would look nice with red or black I just put some Black beauties on my Stingray to try and tame it a bit, after one practice I'm not totally sold yet, even tho I do like the feel of them. I remember donkeys years ago trying some steel Roto's that had a black coating, but they went dead and lifeless very quickly, I never bothered again with them.

[/quote] Didn't Chris Wolstenhome do that at that Olympics thingy? Looked a bit weird depending on which spot was on him as some strings 'disappeared' under some lights Which reminds me..I said a year ago Id post some pics lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2avFU7KN4U&feature=relmfu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
