I've got a 5-string set of Ritter's "Black Knights" strings. Basically, their Swordsteel strings with a black coating. Used for maybe an hour total. Great sounding strings, just turns out I don't like the look of black strings on that bass much...

I also have a set of Rotosound short scale Black Nylon Tapewound strings. Put 'em on my 30" Kinal Kompact and took them off about 5 minutes later. Definitely not the right strings for that bass, tonally. Pretty much brand new.

I'd like to trade either of these sets for some 5-string set with low tension. Like DR Hi-Beams, LaBella HRS or Slappers...stuff like that. Let me know what you've got. :)

hi.........what's the gauge on the Ritter set and does it have a tapered b string?
I'm looking for a 45,65,85,105,130t set.
Thanks
p.d. i have a blue steel set 45 to 128 gauge.
