(very) heavy gauge strings

[Graham]

A mate of mine is after a 200 gauge bass string, I suspect he's tuning down to a low F# - anyone know where he can get one?

Has he consulted [url="http://www.newtonestrings.com/"]Newtone Strings[/url] to see what they can do for him?

I think Circle K strings in the States specialise in strings for low tunings, though I don't know what they're like for international orders.

Cheers, I'll pass those on :-)

I think Warwick may still do a .175 gauge which is still massive.

Just to let you know, I have a 35" bass tuned to A with a .152 gauge string on it (custom made by Newtone), and after a few years I've decided it's actually a bit too heavy!
