Not fretting paul Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I bought some black tape wound strings for my fretless and they are too short as the bass has a trapeze bridge. Would tape wound strings be ok on a fretted bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbasspecial Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I have a set of black TRU 88’s on one of my P basses. Sounds fantastic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meterman Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Should be fine, I’ve had them on a Telecaster bass, a Mustang bass and a Precision, all fretted. They feel and sound great 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 I have them on several basses. Excellent tones whatever there on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Yeah I’ve had plenty of fretted basses with tapewounds, and if you get on with the low tension, they sound awesome! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
