Where are the low C# string users at?

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm talking about bassist who detune a string down the C#.


I'm asking bassist who have an actual low C# string on their bass.


If you use one what type of music are you playing?

I think he might mean the C# an octave below the one you're playing.

I tune my low string to either C or A. Have an EB slinky 105 right now. We play stoner tech metal.
