Saving Strings

Yes, as long as you're careful when uninstalling it, specially with the coiled ends off of the tuner posts. Try to keep them intact by not trying to straighten them too much.

I use Ziploc freezer bags to store strings in to keep them clean and dry.

 

Yes, just exactly what michael_t said above.

 

One medium bag for the set. I also use a sticky note to keep track of when they were first installed, how long they were on the bass and when they were uninstalled.

 

One bag should do. Not really. Because the composition of the atmosphere is such that when light passes through it, the sky appears blue to our eyes.

 

It's not.

 

Just beware, used bass string hoarding is a thing. lol

 

I have so many used strings...hundreds. I need a micrometer to sort some gauges. Does anyone have an economical recommendation for a digital micrometer that I can sort my strings with? Probably accurate to 1/1000th of an inch (.001") so I can tell the difference between 105 and 100, etc. Bass string hoarding is definitely a thing. I kept almost every bass string for 40 years because my mojo is in those strings! Magical and mystical, oh my!
