Hi
I have a GT 25 inch microbass, that came with silverback strings and a set of aquila thundergut strings ( automatic sausaging in days of installation) Silverbacks are too metal sounding.
I like the tape wound sound of my D'addario nylon tape wound medium gauge strings I have on my 40 year old Ibanez Studio Quadraloc bass.
Does anyone make a tape wound string for the micro bass scale of bass guitars?
Many guitar manufacturers are making short scale basses, but I can only find round wound composite core strings.
Gold Tone told me the Microbass would not be able to handle the tension of a tape wound string.
What have other short scale bass owners found?
Thanks in advance for your input.
