I will own a 535 one day...one day...

I hate you all!

This one isn't mine, but I did get to play it. Some of you may recognize the Sushi Bass owned by Norm Stockton. (A great player and wonderful guy!)

what kind of strings do you guys use with your 535s?

I wanna try something different. I'm currently using MTD strings and I'm thinkin about Lo-Riders or Fat-Beams

any opinions?

 

[DrGroovenstein]

I'm in the same boat as you, I want to try something different, but not sure what will fit/sound good. I also use the MTD strings at the moment. I think that they are pretty good, but I think that I need to try something nickle. The MTDs go dead on me quickly. I wonder what flats would sound like....

I have DR Sunbeams on mine.

I like DR HiBeams on mine.

 

[funkycarnivore]

I've used Lo-Riders Stainless on my 535, but I recently got a set of Sunbeams that I tried out and I like them a whole lot. They seem to be a little warmer; less "clangy" when brand new.
Oh, and here's the bass:
