petebassist Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Hello string experts, I have a nice looking set of 3/4 size Solo strings (I think!) that were on my double bass when I bought it, but at the time as a DB novice I didn't think to ask what they were. I don't think they were the stock Stentor 1950 strings. The colours are: A - Purple E - Light blue B - Green F# - Black I tried may different string ID websites but have drawn a blank - does anyone recognize these ? Many thanks, Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubsonicSimpleton Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Looks like the bog stock OEM bridge retainers as fitted to all lower end Stentors - see my thread here http://basschat.co.uk/topic/246912-what-strings-do-stentor-fit-on-their-dbs/ I spent a while looking through resources like the Quinn violins database, and the pictures of various strings on the contrabasseshop and gollihurs websites and couldn't find a match.

petebassist Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 Yes, looks like you're right - stock Stentor strings. I'm surprised as off the bass they feel decent quality. Thanks for looking that up, appreciated. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
