overwater#1 Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 (edited) Hi all, I have just borrowed a DB off my local music service. Its a Zeller hybrid-carved front, lam back/ribs. I need this bass for a gig and show next week!! When I recieved the bass, the D string was broken. The D is the same thickness as the A string on other basses I have borrowed. Does anyone have any spare DB strings? Either a D string to suit, or a full set? Some that have been used and just stuck in the drawer, 2nd hand? I dont want to pay much really for these, if at all, Ideally Id like to borrow a string, as Im trying to get them to buy a replacement. Not sure how long that'l take though? Let me know if you can help! Cheers! Matt Edited November 6, 2007 by overwater#1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
