110's going on soon

[TheArchitect]

I think the 110 stainless Rotos are going on the Jazz soon. I am always slow to swap strings strings because they cost but it's time to try something new.

Going to them on the sr800 I had back in the day was a winner but that was an active PJ so I am curious what they will do on a passive Jazz

I'm assuming you're tuning to standard. If so, that's going to be a lot of tension for your bass' neck. You might want to do a setup and adjust your truss rod. Just be careful!

I have 55-110 gauge D'Addario NYXLs on two of my basses and they're tuned to D Standard. Just enough tension for me there.

I’ve been using swing bass 110 sets for many many years. A very slight increase in tension on the fingers, but massive difference in heft tone wise.
I use them on everything now.

That is exactly what I noticed on the SR800 all those years ago. I am not sure why it has taken me so long to come back around to them
