Absolute Beginner Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Hi all. Just wondered what the best strings to fit on my Epiphone Viola would be to help give it that 60's retro sound, as per that of The Beatles.....?! Many thanks. Quote
Absolute Beginner Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 Sorry, and strings which are receptive to the touch of a learner.....? Quote
SlapbassSteve Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 I'd go with rotosound trubass(black nylon coated flats with gold silk), Paul McCartney used them on his Violin for Abbey road and they capture that 60's thump perfectly. Just don't do too many slides as they can get hot to the touch under friction haha Quote
Absolute Beginner Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 Thanks. I assume you mean Rotosound RS88S Tru Bass Nylon Flatwound Bass Guitar Strings 65-115 short scale.....? Quote
