Thanks! Also found this from when they did an 'Ask Me Anything' on Reddit; "Jessy is an excellent Bass and Guitar player. The way he plays and holds the strings are 99% of the sound. For bass, he likes to play on flat strings, mute them and use a pick. The region of the strings where he strikes...

Thanks for all the replies, I appreciate every single one of them. The reason for the "hurry" is that I'm going to record an EP in June. When I've been working with the demos, I've just played the bass lines on a guitar and pitched them down an octave. Like someone suggested earlier, I'm using...

Oh, thank you! Do you know if the Pyramid Gold short scale strings would be too short? As far as I can see, they don't come in medium scale? Sorry, I'm originally a guitar player and this is my first bass - so I've never learned about this before.

Hello, I've just purchased my Squier Classic Vibe Mustang Bass and I want to change the strings to flatwounds. I'm really confused what string length I need and I was wondering if anybody could help me out? The bass hasn't arrived yet so I'm unable to measure it. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply! I can’t seem to find this information on the gear4music link in my first post - is there any way I can find out without having the bass in hand? All I got is that the scale length is 30”. I’m sorry if this is silly questions, I just haven’t done this before. Appreciate...

Thanks for your reply! To be honest, I don’t know. I haven’t received the bass yet. This is my first bass guitar so I don’t know a lot about it. Do you think there’s anyway I can find out online? I would like to order the strings as quickly as possible (after I’ve found the right ones, of...

Hello, I've just purchased a Squier Classic Vibe 60s Mustang Bass and I need a little help to choose the right flatwound strings for it. Here's a reference track in terms of playing style and sound; I've been looking at Pyramid Flatwounds which sounds similar to me, but I don't know if...
