Nope. D'addario won't sell them to the public. Monumentally thick decision.

Does sound daft - also a bit limiting for Ibanez too. Inspired by the Ibanez I also recently bought a secondhand Warwick Corvette Rockbass 5 32" and wanted to swap the strings on that to the same as on the Ibanez.

Thanks for the Newtone suggestion.

A slight annoyance... the medium scale D’addario B string. Can’t seem to find them for sale anywhere. Not on the d’addario website either.

The specs say it’s a set of nickel 170M being the medium 4 string set with an extra 0.130. It’s definitely a medium scale B as the speaking length gets just over the nut. So cannot be a long scale.

Ive emailed D’addario and Ibanez and I’ll update if I get a reply. They sound great on the bass.

Warwick do a low B medium steel and so do Dunlop, but I’d prefer to stick with the D’addarios nickels.

Dunlop also do what I think is the only 5 string set of medium scale flats.

 

Hi @fretmeister did you get anywhere with tracking down the appropriate 5 string set?

I’ve always the thought the EQ from TC Electronic’s BH Series heads would be pretty cool in an onboard pre form. They put the same EQ section into the Spectradrive preamp pedal. 4 bands, with each band cutting at a different frequency than it boosts. The bass control cuts at 50hz but boosts 

That does look bang on for my tastes. Love a little boost at 800hz.

Who's going to tell TC to build it? 😉

One - Metallica 

I'm walking backwards for Christmas- The Goons
