theplumber Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Bought this Sandberg from Bass Bros. I like the strings!! Any idea what they are? I think they may be stainless steel as they are pretty bright! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete.young Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 The way that the winding stops with just the core going over the saddle makes me think these are Rotosound PSD or similar piano-wound strings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itu Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 GHS has similar set, I think it was named as contact core. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Brooks Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 They might be the old Superwound Groundwound (Halfwound) set from 80s/early 90s...the winding colours used to match the packet colour and they were in a yellow packet as I recall.

theplumber Posted October 16, 2022 Author Share Posted October 16, 2022 Plenty of sustain off them.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernaut Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Not Rotos because they have red silk. Not GHS because they have grey silk. I'm stumped. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggaebass Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 I’m not really up on roundwounds but apparently fender 7150 had gold/yellow silks, could it be them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Are they yellow silks? Could be Mark Bass. Their Andrew Gouche sig set has tapered / bare core at the bridge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 https://www.markbass.it/product/gouche-series-electric-bass-stainless-steel-low-action-semi-exposed/ I bet it is these. Purple and Gold are his colours too, for the ball ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffej Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 They look like Dean Markley SR 2000's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
