GHS Bass Boomers and Warwick Bridges

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey guys! I was planning on buying some GHS bass boomers for my 5-string Warwick Corvette $$, and I was wondering if anyone knows if these strings, especially the low B, work with Warwick's weird bridge saddles. I've had issues with the low B of other brands not fitting in the past.

Thanks for your help.

I speak from experience when I tell you that the Low B on the GHS 5 string boomers sets go dead within the first couple of days, after that it turns into on unfocused muddy mess, plus the bridge end is is not tapered so more than likely its not going to fit on your Warwick without some modification.

That's unfortunate. I was hoping to to get a sound similar to that of P-Nut from 311. Does anyone have any suggestionsfor alternatives, maybe?
