I've currently got it strung with Ernie Ball Slinky stainless steels (45-100?). I've been a big fan of there's for a while now. I always used Elite's, but when I got my Stingray it came with Ernie Ball's (funnily enough) and I've stuck with them since.
I buy my strings off of fleabay from a company in the states. I'll try and find the name of it, but it worked out at £10 a pack including shipping. FX rate is shagged now so it'll be more, but its still substantially cheaper than high street (sadly).
One question about your Jazz Deluxe... my mid control seems outrageously powerful, especially when compared to the treble (which isn't as 'bitey' as my Stingray's control) - any observations on that?[/quote]
I agree about the mids control... very powerfull. Very usefull when you need extra power in a tune and for fingerstyle , but not so nice when it comes to slapping , and then you lose a lot of power if you turn it down. Treble and bass are not so powerfull , and maybe that should be more balanced. That said , i barely use the active electronics , beside a bit of mid to boost sometimes but more the pick up mix and i love my jbass deluxe very much!!!
String wise , I have DR low riders on at the moment and i like them. But i ll go back to the stock strings wich are fender , i think the bass was even more perfect with those on , when i bought it
