Exactly that. Had only been on 2 hours and was just away to get a file and a pencil to gently widen it. Oh well.

What flats are you guys using on your 5 string BB? I’ve only tried a La Bella 760fs on a 4 string Pbass but have no idea what’s it gonna be like with a 5er. Any experiences with it or feel free to reco other string options. Ideally I want the feel and thumpy sound of flats so no rounds for me. 

 

 

Rotosound Jazz 77 flats on my 1025x. 👍🏼

It wasn't the only time I heard that.

That’s crazy! I’m not bragging but out of the sixteen basses that I own only one is Fender and four are Yamahas.
