Need flatwound recommendations for 35" scale

Sign in to disble this ad
I've got a Lakland Skyline JO5 that I'd like to string with flats. The Lakland JO flats are the only flatwounds I know of for 35" scale basses. Do you know of any others?

Unless your bass is a string-through, or has some other design issue like that, you should be able to use pretty much any longscale set. I have owned a few 35" basses, including Lakland, Turner, and Lull, and used the same TI 34" sets, and DR 34" sets, on all of them without issues except on the TI flats I had to trim about 1/4" of silk off of the low B.
