fleabag Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Trying to I.D. these strings I have 2 basses fitted with ( at a glance ) the same strings. They look identical to each other regarding the silks. My trouble is that i'm officially colour blind, though this doesn't mean i cant see different colours. I only have trouble when 2 colours are very close to each other. The silks on both these basses could be deep blue or purple when i look at them. Other info is Gold ball ends on both. Also they're flats. I think they maybe GHS Brite flats , but due to time passing, i cannot be sure. Anyone use GHS Brite flats ...? Quote
Cliff Edge Posted October 16, 2023 Posted October 16, 2023 I don’t know what the strings are but those silks are blue to my eyes. Hope that helps. Quote
Pea Turgh Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 I have blue silks like that on my D’Addario flats, too. That may or may not help… Quote

Pea Turgh Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 Didn’t check that - yes - multicoloured! 1 Quote
Jonse Posted October 22, 2023 Posted October 22, 2023 (edited) Think these are Ernie Ball group iii flats. Looks similar to the pic below I found on Google Edited October 22, 2023 by Jonse 1 Quote
pst62 Posted October 22, 2023 Posted October 22, 2023 Being in the same Colourblindness boat, and having both sets at present, I'd say Ernie Ball's too! The lighter ones are looking like Group IV's (40-60-70-95) and the slightly darker ones Group III's (45-65-80-100) Both sets have Gold ball ends. Quote
