Who makes Sandberg strings?

I like the sound and feel of the strings that came fitted to my Sandberg, and would like to stick with them. Unfortunately it seems it's not that easy to get them in the UK. Thomann supply them, but their minimum order kinda kills the price!

Somebody started a similar thread on Talkbass last year - any comments, do we think they're right?

The TB thread tends towards thinking that if some other company makes the strings then they must be the same as some string made by that other company. That's not correct because the string companies will be making whatever is ordered from them. So, in this example, Sandberg could be using GHS without them strictly being Super Steels.

Indeed. This is the case with Ken Smith bass strings.
