IMO, they'd be waaaaayyyy too tight and could be a real issue for the neck of your bass. *snap*

I didn't intentionally buy a 5 string set for that purpose but when I got tired of using my Studio V, it's heavy, I strung my Classic Pro BEAD with another set I had in the drawer. Now I just use the Classic Pro and the Studio V is a wall decoration.

Happy Birthday, Chuck! Nice Frenchie!

Eddy looks thrilled! :roflmao: Is that handsome boy an Italian greyhound?

They were Goth Metal... it goes with the territory.

Love Type-O Negative and really got what Peter Steele brought to metal in the 90's. Too bad he didn't take his health issues seriously enough. I guess there's lots of guys that fall into this category regardless of ethnicity but having been around Poles for more than a quarter century since...
