I would recomm a set of light chromes, 40-95. I think youll find they have plenty of high end, and very easy on the hands :bassist:

Ive been watching tracking it will be in your hands pretty soon

I loved the bass myself. It was only to be painted blue. When I got it back I was pretty disapointed.

Cant say about those, but I just tried a set of 7350XL that totally rock. The best part is the price:bassist: Listed as a new Item on Musicians Friend:hyper:

Have you ever tried Blue Steels? Similar to Low Riders. Im not so sure the open E dont sound better. :hiding:

Update: Just tried Roto 66 for a week. Didnt really think they sounded all that musical, and tough to play. IMO:hiding: Now trying Blue Steels (again). I think they sound better than the Roto 66, and similar to DR Lowriders that I liked pretty well, but I think so far my overall favorite SS...
