Anyone using Rotosound Jazz Bass 77's on their 51 Precision?

Hey Guys,
I'm wondering if the Rotosound 77's gauge 40-100 are long enough to string through the bridge of my 51-P reissue and have the silk ends clear the nut. Anyone tried it? or through the bridge on another bass?
Thanks in Advance,
Brent

I use the RS77LE (50 - 110) on my Rob Allen string through and it works just fine. I would assume the lower gauge set would work as well.

Thank you very much! That's a 34" scale bass right?

The Solid 4 is a 34".

It works for me just fine. The E seems to be just barely long enough for the 51 but it still manages to fit properly.

Great to hear thanks. I'm a big fan of Rotosound strings.
