Mudpup Posted December 30, 2025 Posted December 30, 2025 Warwick Red Nickels at Bax Music for under £4 Be aware that the .135 B string is 'challenging' to get into the ferrule on Cort string thru designs. Should be ok on a normal bridge though. (Or throw the B away and just use them as a 4 string set of course) Warwick 46301 M Red Strings Nickel-Plated Steel 5-String Low | Bax Music https://share.google/6a8rldbG7NIeGN4ah 1 Quote

lemmywinks Posted January 2 Posted January 2 Got 4 sets on the way, thanks! Been using these exact strings on my backup bass for a while now so should keep me going for a while. Quote
Delberthot Posted Wednesday at 18:41 Posted Wednesday at 18:41 (edited) Just received my order through today. Does this look right to you? They're the same strings but in 2 different styles of packaging Edited Wednesday at 18:42 by Delberthot Quote
lemmywinks Posted Wednesday at 21:12 Posted Wednesday at 21:12 Two of my sets are out of stock so have to wait. Quote

Used these strings a lot before switching to NYXLs, was always the top packaging but perfectly possible they've changed, could even be why they selling them cheap. Quote
Delberthot Posted Wednesday at 22:34 Posted Wednesday at 22:34 Ive emailed Dunlop to see if they can shed some light on it. I don't mind if they've changed the packaging depending on how long ago it was Quote
lemmywinks Posted yesterday at 00:43 Posted yesterday at 00:43 (edited) Seems to be their new packaging design: https://www.jimdunlop.com/super-bright-stainless-steel-bass-strings-40-120-5-string/ Edited yesterday at 00:43 by lemmywinks Quote
