M-Bass-M Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 [url="http://ashdownmusic.com/shop/product.php?id=2530"]These strings[/url]? I know they're a few quid more expensive, but it seems you can still purchase them. Quote

M-Bass-M Posted January 18, 2017 Posted January 18, 2017 Result What are the strings like? I didn't know Ashdown made strings and I'm after some new strings for my trusty Precision. Quote
Bass Culture Posted January 18, 2017 Posted January 18, 2017 They'd surely be made by one of the bigger players and badged up as Ashdown, wouldn't they? Quote
ahpook Posted January 18, 2017 Posted January 18, 2017 [quote name='Twincam' timestamp='1484744836' post='3217983'] Are they woolly? Only joking! [/quote] Oh, you too baaaad. Quote

Kevin Dean Posted January 19, 2017 Author Posted January 19, 2017 Ok , So the Guage made very little difference I had to boost the mid eq a bit more & they fit a 36" just , They are very similar to Roto Sound Swing . Quote
Lozz196 Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 That`s interesting to know Kevin, think `ll grab a few sets whilst still around then. Quote
Muppet Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 [sup]Are these the same as the ones that initially came in a movie film canister type tin with a VU meter picture on top? The strings were awful, but the tin was nice - still got it![/sup] Quote
