Sadowsky Blue Labels on 55-02

[Miesside]

hey guys...
this topic might has been posted up before,
but i guess have to change a new favour for my 55-02 after using DR longnecks for quite sometime..

My main focus is mostly fingerstyle.. Looking into nickel string this time. I've seen alot of reviews that a strung thru body needs to be strung with tapered strings.. isit true? cause my DRlongnecks are tapered.. well, does any one strung them on ur 55-02/01?? cause sadowsky's website stated that it is not designed for that.

Now as i really like feel of the strung thru body design on the bass.. oh well any suggestion? or anyone strung them on ur 55-02/01?

Hope to hear from someone soon!

You will need to get the XL version of the Sadowsky strings and you will NOT be able to string them thru the body. I can not tell any difference in stringing through the body or toploading thru the bridge.

I owned a 5502 and used the Black label nickels and steels on it and it sounded great.
