Will Fender 8250's fit ok on a HW-one?

Sign in to disble this ad
The reason i ask is i got these strings to go through body on a MIA, as per the stock strings. I like the tone and feel of these strings.

I now have a HW-one coming (MIA is gone) and still have the strings packaged up. I can send them back if i dont open them but i wanted to check they wont be too long for the HW-one. As they fit fine through body i cant tell if they will also fit ok top loaded.


If they will be too long i can get a set of 7250's instead.

Cheers.

I put 8250's on a top mounted P-bass and they're fine. You will have to raise the saddle on for the E, and that's it.
