paulnb57 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) I am in the process of collecting parts for a 51/54 P Bass inspired by the Dusty Hill Signature model which has a reverse headstock, so I am alittle concerned that some string sets may not have a long enough strings, does anyone have any experience of stringsets with a sufficiently long strings It may be that standard strings are long enough, but it would be a shame to spend several beer tokens to find they dont fit..... I would prefer Stainless, roundwound........45 - 100 The Dusty Bass has Fender® USA Bass 7250ML, NPS, (.045-.100 Gauges) bit they are Nickel.....

bartelby Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) I use D'Addarios on a reverse headstock, modded, P bass. Plenty of string wrapped around Edited January 6, 2016 by bartelby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulnb57 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 Thanks Bart! 51 P is thru body strung, which will add about 1 1/2 inches.......might have to stick a 4 saddle top strung bridge on it......oh well I have both styles of bridge in the part bin, so all is not lost......

dudewheresmybass Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I use standard roto swing bass on my reverse stocked warlock. I've never had a problem using standard length strings on reverse heads. My Kramer also has a reverse, and. I use the red Warwick strings, or roto bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
