First string replacement

Sign in to disble this ad
Well I'm a fairly new bassist and figured it would be a good idea to change my strings right about now. Thing is I don't know anything about strings so i was wondering if yall could help me.

I play an Ibanez GSR200 http://www.guitarcenter.com/Ibanez-G...76-i1150632.gc

and i play a mix of finger style and slap and maybe a little picking if i feel like it. I don't know exactly what the "scale" is and i know there are a bunch of different type of strings so what would yall suggest (not looking for a specific brand but string type and scale) Thank you in advance.

It's long scale. I would suggest DR Hi-Beams or Lo-Riders.
