I think maybe I'll try prosteel first. Hmm...I heard that SIT also have Foundation Stainlesssteel series, how if compare it to Hi-Beams & ProSteel? For Elixir it's too expensive for me.:D But it is great coated strings that has loooong lifetime.:bassist: CMIIW

Hi, I need alternative stainless strings recomendation. I usually take D'Addario EXL-170 but it not long lasting cause My hand sweating alot so usually D or G string broke up after 5-6 weeks use. After that I move to SS strings, I love DR Hi-Beam 45-105 but it is harder to find compare to NPS...

After compare the sound from Sire V7 2nd gen VS Bacchus Universe WJB5-BP/ACT, What I hear is Sire has more vintage character side and Bacchus has more modern character side. Am I right?

I've use D'Addario XL EXL170 but it break up often, and I have wet/sweating hand so it won't last longer than any SS strings I use now. Thanks for your help. :D Why, please mention your reason?;)

Hi, I'm confused to choose between this two basses. Bacchus Universe WJB5-BP/ACT. Sire V7 2nd gen 5strings. I want to ask which is better in: Build Quality Playability Low B Sound/Tension. Or may there is another alternative arround this price point. Thanks

Thanks for your info, I appreciate it. :thumbsup: I sent email to sire about neck reinforcement, maybe I can get official info. But if there is no reinforcement, only just trust rod it's ok. I like this bass more than V7 Vintage, cause versatility, have better bridge and 35". Maybe I'll buy it...
