Sign in to disble this ad
I am a new player so I can use as much help as possible. I am want to get into blues type playing. I perfer a warm, smooth low tone. I don't like the high punchy midrange sound. What strings should I try. This is a 5 string bass

I recommend GHS boomers, they aren't as bright as D'addarios, and they sound great

get mid gauge cause Ibanezs buzz with heavy gauge.

btw, strings take time to sound warm so have patience and play with the bright sounding string for a week or two,, you'll get your sound
