D'Addario EXL180 is .035 - 095. It is long scale however. But perhaps they make medium scales as well.

GHS has made a Boomers 6 set like that in the past, but I cannot find it listed now. You could get the 6 string Boomers set and save the B string for something in the future.

Rotosound maybe? They make a .30-.90 set, so I bet they probably make .35-.95.

Rotosound swing 66 version RS66LC is 40-95. There 35 set does the low E as 90 instead of 95. Id go with the 95 myself and enjoy the slightly less tension of the 40 for G string.

Maybe Labella slappers?

D'Addario EXL 180 Super Soft Gauge. http://www.bassemporium.com/item.php?sku=EXL180
You can always make up a custom set, many dealers carry the D'Addario single set I use a custom D'Addario set 35-55-80-100 on several of my basses.

Hi Chris....I've been making sets with custom gauges for customers since I started here at DR in the mid 90's.

In our brand, ANY gauge listed in our catalog, and a few other random gauges that aren't part of our regular sets, can be made into a custom set of strings for you.

I've done 35-95 bass sets many times, mostly in Hi Beams. Order them thru you local brick and mortar music store, or some online dealers will accept custom orders. Email me for names of a couple who are willing to help.

Anthony
