Lefty J Body w/ right-handed P-neck question.

Regular long strings for that Squier will do. That's a top-loading string bridge, so no need for longer scale.

And since I'm a big fanboy, yes, I will suggest some GHS Precision flatwound strings - they'll work on either top-load or string-through.

 

Any chance there is a leftover lefty neck that wants a new home?!?!?!

 

But the neck better be strong to handle those.

 

I've had a VM 70s with the GHS strings. Once the neck relief and other parts of the setup was done, absolutely no problems. I've found D'Aaddario Chromes banana-ed the neck. The GHS remain supple, IMHE...

 

They are quite high tension. I had them on a Nate Mendel neck and couldn’t get the bow out. They are nice strings though.

 

That's unfortunate Hope you found some suitable flats for your axe since then.

 

No they're not. Precision Flats and Bass Boomers are almost the same tension on 45-105 sets: 184.6 vs 186.5 pounds.

 

GHS Precision Flats are always a good choice. Medium tension and good flexibility. I've got five years on this set. Praise Report: GHS Precision Flats

 

Maybe I’ve got the flats mixed up. I know they are ghs with purple silks.

 

Those are the ones! GHS Precision Flats have Purple silks.

 

Normal length 34" works for this lefty
