So here’s a question …. I’m thinking of going BEAD on my Hofner contemporary club bass. I know there might be some drilling/nut widening required ….. kinda made the decision, rarely use that pesky G anyways. Anyone know of any light 5 sets?? Can’t find any on the interweb …. does such a thing even exist???

Assuming it’s rounds you want, I’d suggest ordering a custom set from Newtone strings. You’ll also end up with the 4 strings in the set that you need, rather than an unneeded G as well.

Good idea, thanks! Should’ve mentioned that It’s flats I’m looking for which seems to change things.

LaBella also make 5 string short scale flats, one thing to check is what string length you actually want as the LaBella ones don't have much extra length ( i have them fitted to my short scale 5 string)
