niceguyhomer Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 I've just purloined a 5 string Shuker with the individual saddle bridge. It's currently got a set of Elixirs on with a tapered B and they have to go. Can anyone tell me what'll fit in the B slot because I've tried a 130 DR and there's no chance. Quote
steve-soar Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Status strings have a taper, I've seen a 130 used on their bridges which I think are the same as the Shuker ones. Quote
Pete1967 Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 I have Ernie Ball Slinkies (45-130) on my Shuker 5 at the moment (not great but they were on when I got it from Jon) and Elites 130 also fit having checked. Although the bridges are slotted at the top the trick seems to be to insert the string about an inch or so up from the ball and then slide upwards... if you get my drift.... Quote

I've been eyeing up a set of Fat Beams but won't waste my cash if it's definitely a no goer... Quote
