I have a set of DR High-beams on my 55-02, and they're more than long enough. They might be a "super-long" model, but I'm not sure. These strings came with the bass when I bought it.

The B is tapered, too. Great strings, I love the tone.

Thanks.
I have just ordered a set of laklands off the lakland website as a precaution and i think they had some DR's there as well.
i didnt realise it would be dificault to get 35" strings.
lucky i like the lakland ones then
