Pirastro Electric Bass Strings?

Sign in to disble this ad
So I got a set of freebie Electric Bass strings from them a few years ago, but have never been able to find a set for sale. Anyone ever heard of them, or where to get them? I've boiled mine a few times, but they are pretty much done.

Hey,
Yes I know about them,I played such strings a few years ago until I switched to Fodera Diamonds and Optima Golds (unexpected great tone,BTW).
The EB strings you're looking for are branded "Pirazzi" and not "Pirastro".You might look here:

(Swiss strore,I don't know if they sell/send in the US).
The same applies to these strings' availability,the Pirastro/Pirazzi are pretty rare birds outside Europe (of course,I mean the el.guitar/el.bass ones,NOT the ones for classical instruments).
Regards,
