ebenezer Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 having just bought the above bass, i am just wondering what strings will fit using the through body stringing method i tend to use 40/45-125 roundwound cheers folks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubinga5 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) I usually buy the 5 string (was) Marcus Miller DR Fat Beams , and they have enough wind to go through the body on a 35" scale.. Best round wound strings on the market Imo..And they last for a long long time. But your string of choice may differ. Amazon are selling these for £25 atm. Ive bought these for £45 in the past. I think since Marcus Miller has gone to Dunlop, you can get these at great prices.. https://www.amazon.co.uk/DR-Strings-FB5-45-Fat-Beams-Medium/dp/B009P6E9ZW Edited February 20, 2018 by bubinga5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horizontalste Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Extra long D'addario's will fit if they're your flavour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris_b Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 I strung a set of DR Lo-Riders through the body on my US 55-94 and didn't think that made much of a difference, so went back to stringing through the bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
