Bass size question involving strings.

Hey everyone,

I just recently had my A string snap at the bridge and the E string about to do the same.

I have been looking at string sets, but most of the strings come in 3/4 as the longest length.....

Anyone know where there is a good selection of full size bass string sets?

Thanks guys, any help soon would be greatly appreciated, as school starts back up soon and I am going to need that bass restrung very soon.

Cool Full sized?

How big is this Bass? I have regular Flexocors on my Prescott which is more of a 4/4 than 7/8. I have no problems. Measure the length needs from the tailpiece to the bridge, TP to the Nut/pegbox and the TP to each tuner. Also all the measurements of your Bass like listed here; http://www.kensmithbasses.com/Double...t/Prescott.htm

My Bass pictured is about 78" from the bottom to the top of the scroll.
