Bass with 10 strings

[CRONOS]

Hay my friend has a 10 string bass. He doesn't have any strings for it he says the strings are to expensive. I was wondering if anyone knows were to buy cheap strings for a 10 string. Tanks for any help.

Didn't look to see if they had ten-string sets, & I doubt you'll find a truly cheap set anywhere, but theses guys have a lot of variety.

"my friend has a 10 string bass."

The real question is "Why" ???

 

[Papazita]

What type of 10-string? Single course (each string tuned to an individual pitch; BEADGC, etc)? A dual-course 5-string (like a 12-string guitar)?

He made it.

He made it.

Single or dual course? That is the item in question here. It could have been made by purple midgets on venus, but that still doesn't make its origin a relevant factor.

Dunno bro; I can see a bass like that selling for LOTSO $$$ Tonally Venusian hardwoods are. . . are . . . well, there's no other term than 'out of this world'!!

To OP; we all got that it has 10 strings. How are those 10 tuned?

 

[CRONOS]

Sorry guys I don't know anything or have even seen it. The only thing I know is it's 10 strings and you can tune it at the bottom. I hope to see it soon and when I do I'll put some pics up.

He's probably going to have to buy singles.
Even Conklin only sells up to 7 string sets.

THAT is why.

That makes sense.....never heard one.......doesn't it sound kinda muddy?
