Recommend me some simple strings for my Ibanez GSR200

[louis0nfire]

My factory strings have lasted me awhile, but I think it's time to get rid of them now for multiple reasons.

I don't know much about bass guitars and I've never changed strings myself.

I'm looking for good, cheap, and "normal" strings to replace my factory ones. Nothing fancy at all.

Also I have guitar center giftcards I need to burn through, so if you could show me some from there it would be appreciated. Thanks!

Well if you got some GC giftcards to burn through I would go with D'Addario. They are really good strings and very durable. I used to have strung on my 4 string, a Ibanez GSR200FM, D'Addarios, but I'm just trying out different strings now. The ones I had strung on it were the D'Addario EXL 170 Nickel Wound, but it says in the right hand corner BRIGHT Round Wound, either way they are really good. The gauge is .045 .065 .080 .100. The box that they are in is blue with a white circle in the middle and a pinkish ring around the white circle.

The link is the specs. on the strings

Hope you enjoy!!

Brand is up to you, but I'd stick with whatever gauge you have already, so as to not need setting up your bass.
