Lakland 55-02 strings

[nnnnnn]

I'm not sure what gauge B is on my 55-02, or even whether it's tapered because it came mounted through the body and it's a bit hard to tell. I haven't changed the strings yet.

As it happens I use D'Addario nickel strings on my other basses though, so I would want the same thing again when I eventually change the strings on this bass.

Does D’addario make a tapered B?

They’ve made tapered nickel XL B strings for years - I buy them as singles, don’t know if they come in sets. Haven’t seen a through-body tapered B from D’Addario.

D'A tapered B's can only be ordered as singles as they're not part of any factory 5-string sets.
