Hey guys. Nice forum.

Could you help me find strings to an 8 stringed bass? Unpaired 8 strings, so im not looking for GG DD AA EE, but rather F# B G D A E F strings.
Ive looked around a bit but I just cant find any

Its for this bass

Thanks alot

(.018, .025, .035, .055, .080, .110, .135, .165) or you could go really deep with a .195

hmm.. Do you know if theres any cheaper alternative? It'll cost me 93 dollars without the shipment, and considering I live in Sweden I dont think the shipping will be cheap

Newtone??? www.newtonestrings.com

They might be just as expensive, if they can do it. There are lots of guys here with 6+ stringed beasts, one should chime in soon.

I believe the only ones they carry there are the octave sets, not what you are looking for.

i think thats what he meant, you can buy strings in singles. just pick the brand and the size.

You can buy either the 6 or 7 string set and add the singles.
