Stock strings on Skyline Glaubs

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi guys,

Does anyone knows what are the strings they put on Skyline Glaubs ? I'd like to know the gauge and if they're nickel or stainless.

Thanks !
Nick

Lakland Stainless rounds, made by GHS. .45 through .105 also available in .40 through .100. for a more Motown vibe, Lakand JO flats will be great. If you want round with less zing, try Lakland Nickel Rounds. Lakland strings available from the Lakland website. www.lakland.com. GHS Precision flats are the same string as the JO Flats. Not sure about the rounds.

The rounds are the same as GHS Boomers pretty much.

The stainless steels are GHS Super Steels and the Nickels are GHS Boomers. They are made for Lakland and fit their basses perfectly. The flats as mentioned earlier are GHS Precision Flatwound.

Plain good 'ole GHS Super Steel ?

That's good news, because my MIM p-bass is strung with Boomers.

Thank you guys.
