[quote name='eude' post='348679' date='Dec 8 2008, 02:57 PM']Try Newtone Strings ( www.newtonestrings.com ) They've made all kinds of custom bass strings for me in the past, scales, guages, taperwound etc. and they do acoustic sets, they might be able to help you out. On a side note, I find that regular, albeit electric, bass strings fit fine on my 33" bass, so you might get away with a regular set. Good luck dude, Eude[/quote] Thanks for that. Funnily enought I fired off an email to them about 10 minutes ago. Picato have also said they'll do me a set.

Anyone know if/where I can get a set of medium scale acoustic bass guitar strings? I need a 5 string (low set. Cheers Gareth

I was gigging in Guildford one night about ten years ago when Mr Foxton walked into the pub. Funnily enough, we were in the middle of an acoustic set and we were playing "Tube Station" as he came in! Anyway, he stood at the back of the pub and watched us until we finished our set. Then he came over, bought us all a beer, and sat with us 'til we had to go back on. He was a really nice guy, very modest and unassuming, and it was a pleasure to talk to him. I've seen him a few times since around and about and he still remembers me each time. Top chap.
