Peavey Grind Bass 5 BXP

Sign in to disble this ad
I have a Peavey Grind Bass 5 BXP NTB and i want to replace its strings with a new set. (tuned B-E-A-D-G)



ever since i bought my Grind, i never still changed the stock strings. meaning, the stock strings of my bass are still intact.



i want to replace them with a new set but still retain the same string guage of my peavey.



problem is, i dont know what guage Peavey used..



what's the string guage of the Peavey Grind Bass 5 BXP NTB (factory string guage)?

hehe ive been trying to measure it with our Vernier Caliper but, i think ours is already faulty. i wish we had one that was digital. would have made things much easier

anyway, i hope some of you guys already knew so that id dont have to ask our local music store
