Steels do. Nickels are blue. Both are vile. My jazz bass has the nickels on as the shop I passed only had the gauge I like in roto.
they were dead within a week of being on the bass.
Not great - one went for £300 in January (which was a bargain) but this is borderline rip off.
I would happily pay £500, but £700+ you’re heading towards a used attitude limited...
Was in a band who were bigger in America. He also is a bit of a session legend. He’s on Electric Ladyland by Hendrix and other stuff - big on the hippie 60’s stuff.
He did a nice solo album too with quite lovely songs on it. I’m sure he’s done lots more than that.
