What are my options?

I'm having a very hard time finding strings for a 36" scale 6 string bass. I'd like TI's but they don't have sets in Jazz Rounds or Flat Wounds.

Any thoughts?

DR's fit up to 37"

i think S.I.T. strings will fit pretty much anything..and they stay fresh nearly forever..

Maybe the DR's are the way to go. How do the Low Rider's sound?

ernie balls don't have any colored winding... I use hybrid slinky's as my standard roundwound (everything except my P and hollowbody)

They are a good all around string, good for just about any genre from country to jazz and are not too bright. If you lke a realy bright sound try slinkys or high beams

If you want to experiment, try slinkys, they are cheap at MF $20 for a 5 string set
