eubassix Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 (edited) Taken from a 'new' (to me) bass. I won't be using them but appreciate that they're an expensive buy when new (c. £45 - 80 depending on make/brand). I had thought they might be Roto Tru Bass (?) but the gauges seem lighter at c. 50/65/85/105 (similar to D'addario version). If anyone recognises them, let me know or add to the thread. The lengths are: E (100); A (105); D (105); G (104) 2 + 2 headstock (32" scale). Includes postage :- Edited November 18, 2023 by eubassix sold 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyctes Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 (edited) Can't be sure, but Fender make (made?) nylon flats with a mustard-yellow silk. These certainly look like them. Edited July 2, 2023 by alyctes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOTE: just amended the post details as they're from a 32" bass (not a 34"), but the c. string lengths are correct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Just trying to weigh up if they’ll fit my 32.5 scale Aria bass David. I like to get at least a couple of winds around the tuning post, 100 might not quite manage that, not sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eubassix Posted July 11, 2023 Author Share Posted July 11, 2023 I also measure them in inches - might depend upon the distance from the saddles to the bridge 'insert/s' (It's only c. 1-1.5" on a standard Fender BBoT bridge), but the E is c. 39.5" and the others 41-41.5" .... so -1.5" (bridge .... possibly) should give you about 5.5" - 7/7.5" above the nut (?) ... but headstock design/length might also be(come) a factor.

Stub Mandrel Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Just FYI D'Addario are dark blue wrap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stub Mandrel Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 I commented a month ago. But every evening this thread pops up in my feed say activity several hours ago. It just won't die! I'm commenting again to see if this corrects what must be a system glitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's the way the system 'works', in that the last comment(er) remains ad infinitum (generally when a thread is 'bumped'). So I'm adding this to hopefully take up the mantle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
