Yeah i agree. I've got elixirs on my pbass (which tbh I don't use often) and def find the dragon skin plus more flexible and responsive. More "bounce" If that is a thing?!? 26 quid sounds mega value, nice one. Think I paid 33 or so but that's still way less than elixirs and similar to low riders which are what I'd been using on my main bass previously. I'll try to remember to report back in a couple of months re how they're lasting.

Tried a set of these as I saw they're relatively recently introduced and my low riders needed replacing. Figure I'd try something coated to see if they last much longer, which can only be a good thing, right. Got the "quantum" nickle 45-100 set and fitted to a sandberg california tt4. As far as im concerned this is a great match. The bass is already pretty bright and clear but these seem to have tightened up the low end further and just sound great to my ears. Maybe not to everyone's taste, of course. They did seem to have a bit of friction against the fingers to play straight out of the packet but after playing in for an hour or so it's either gone or I no longer notice it. If they last well, then I've probably found a string I'll stick with. For now. Wonder if anyone else has tried them and their thoughts.

Was looking for some delano pickups for my p bass which weren't shown on BDs website but saw that they did stock other delanos so emailed on the off-chance they could get hold of them. Really helpful and friendly and they did order them in and now recieved a few weeks later. Great service.

Ah interesting didnt know it was the same. Thanks for that. The pmt one has decent enough reviews so I think I'll go for it. Cheers.

Got some vouchers for guitar guitar and want to get a hard case. For bass they have one by Ordo, which isn't a brand I've seen. Anyone got experience with this? Would be grateful for a steer. Thanks. Would be carrying a sandberg california. https://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/product/220302382248027--ordo-gc-2geb-deluxe-electric-bass-abs-hard-case?gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIh-KtyejEiQMV5olQBh2deAWYEAQYAiABEgKSAfD_BwE

Seconded - great looking bass. Congrats on the purchase. I've got a Sandberg and adore it.

Thanks for this info. I'll do the same.

I have exactly the same issue, did you order a replacement? Cheers.

I've fairly recently purchased what (to me, at least) is my first really nice bass - a Sandberg TT4. My somewhat obsessive nature coupled with how much I'm loving the instrument has got me thinking about how and where I keep it. I basically have two options: 1. In a garden office I have. The building is insulated and has heating but we only use the heating when the building is in use so it will definitely be getting cold in there at night etc. I.e. environment where temperature probably fluctuates a fair bit. 2. Upstairs at home - with me and the wife taking showers in the morning and the kids having a bath in the evening. I.e. environment where probably humidity fluctuates a fair bit. Imagine it's all a question of fact and degree, but out of interest just wondered if there was any thoughts about this.

Each to their own of course but it doesn't all work together for me. I think the silvery pickups are the offending element (or are those in the pic some sort of blank because you can spec it with various different types?).

Saw a video of lowendlobster saying the gotoh GB528 tuners are a lightweight drop in replacement for sires which doesn't require any drilling. Considering them for my P5.

Thanks all. Loving it more and more.
