Now I understand why bass players never trim their strings...Originally Posted by dingobass
And the thing with Bass strings is you only need to change them every 20 years or so....
That is from one Bass to another

Hahah! I remember watching that episode of SSTV aaaages ago! 😝 good times, gotta love stack!
Adam had enlightened me that it would cost me 259 buckaroos for a 4 string ex kit. Which is roughly 30 or 50 bucks more than the 5 string, which is no big deal, I expected something like that. So the way I see it, there's no point paying more money for less options, if need be I'll just ignore the extra string. now just the tough wait of saving some money while I finish my other kits :P
For some things, some times, it's the same time all over the world, and I think we know what time that is...
I use Ernie Ball Flatwounds... The older they get the better they seem to sound.
@DB 20 years!!!? How often are you playing those strings? :P
Have a mate over east that plays two or three gigs a week and has had the same set on for over 20 years now.....
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
That's nuts! I love it! Haha I'll never have to change strings on my bass ever haha! Woohoo!

Mhmm I'm the same DB. I've seen people break the damn E string (even seen a B break, what the actual?) multiple times and who knows how hard they play....
