i read through two different threads first about price of sets for five strings then about mixed sets, and i was wondering would i get away with using a 105 as a B string on a fiver because i usually use a .35 as my G and a .85 as my E would i need a complete reset or is it jus not possible.
i hope it is coz it would save some money got some 105s i aint sold
i never thought of that bit bummed i like my current set up but if needs must ill hav to change thanks mate
Well, I have to say I'm very surprised that you tune a .085 down to an E, and have no problem with the really relaxed tension considering that is what most people use for their A string. You could always just try tuning down a .105 string to a low B and see if it works for you.
I used to use 30-90 on my fours, if I had played a 5er at that point, I'd have put on a 110. A 105 isn't such a vast departure, a little light, but not too bad. Give it a rip- without all that mass, it might be a bit bottom-shy. You have active electronics? They help a lot.
well i only used the 35 set up on my tenor at first but i liked the feel of it so i use it on all my bass's now n dunt wanna loose it the this actually helping out thanks guys
