Thunderbird Club

If you do intend to try them, at least they're relatively inexpensive. But just know that they only offer one gauge set for each of the 4, 5, or 6 string sets.

I got my 5 string set $36 shipped....

45-65-85-105-130

I AM going to find out if I can get a 125-132 string from Pyramid.

A 5 string pyramid gold set would be the bees knees....

Pyramid golds are my favorites (followed by GHS I'd say), and are on about three basses. I like the LaBella Low Tension on one bass, but was never really impressed by their DTFs on anything for some reason. I have some Fender SS flats that aren't on anything at present. They sound nice--kind of like Chromes but with more mids and tighter lows (from what I remember about Chromes).

I have a new set of chromes cut for a ric, but they came on a fretless so I really didn't get to try them, and my fretted are getting fewer and fewer.... I could try them on the HeadlessBird if I ever finish it....
