Re: Bass Strings
I play Fender Super Bass 7250s Bass Strings F7250M Medium gauges: .045, .065, .085, .105
I play DR TiteFit LH 9-46.
I find the light bass strings tend to "rattle" too much.

Re: Bass Strings
I've always used 45-105's.......and yes, it's long scale. Since you're not experienced with basses there's really no sense in you spending $20-$30 on a set of strings. Get a set of $10 Darco strings. That's about as cheap as you'll find any bass strings.

Re: Bass Strings
34 is long scale. short scale are around 32 or less, and there are extra long scale that starts around 35 or so and go up.

Re: Bass Strings
Thanks. I've also noticed that bass strings come in long and short scales, but I don't know what bass scales are. Is 34 long or short?

Bass Strings
I bought a used Yamaha BB404 bass that's in bad need of a setup. I don't have much experience with basses, so what guage strings should I use? I believe the bass is a 34" scale, and if it helps any, I like 9-42s on my 25.5 scale guitars and 10-46s on my 24.75 scale guitars.Tags: None
