  1. These strings sounded great. They came on a used bass I purchased, BUT ... I cannot find out what brand they are. Any help out there? The windings alternate blue and silver. CLICK the PIC and have a look!

[quote name='eastwind' post='221873' date='Jun 19 2008, 12:43 AM']Hi I I am not suprised that the standard Jazz bridge gives the bass the least sustain irrespective of the through stringing I just don,t think they are that rigid, but have noticed that it gives better control as note decay is faster so lends itself to fast finger playing. My Squier Jazz (also fitted with a J-Retro) was still "dead" until I put a high mass Fender style (Chinese of course)bridge on. The bass came alive especially with harmonics, brightness and sustain but didn't sound like a Jazz anymore. I had to consciously damp strings more than I would normally when playing. I think bridge choice is very important and can completely change a bass sound and the way you have to play it. I have knife edge saddles on my Hofner S7B and the sustain is amazing. Aren't basses ace.......I learn more every day... [/quote] My God! I've finally found someone other than myself with an S7B! Are there others out there?
