BassAdder60 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Has anyone tried dropping down from 45-105 roundwounds to 45-100 on a PBass ? I also play in Eb tuning so that’s another factor I’m going to try the Fender Nickel Roundwounds Playing rock with a pick if that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 My basses are 33” scale and are normally fitted with 45-100, I use a drop D tuner. No issues. I recently had to replace an E string due to breakage and could only replace with a 105, can’t say I can tell any difference. This is with EB cobalt flatwounds.

gjones Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I bought a P bass with a set of 45-100 Elixirs. Sounded great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) I guess there is hardly any difference in the E string from 105 to 100 and A string 85 to 80 Maybe a tweek on truss Rod but I’m hoping nut doesn’t need anything done Edited November 29, 2021 by BassAdder27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
