Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

• Q: Will these fit my string-through-body bass?

• A: No, this specific set is not suitable for string-through-body bridges. For those instruments, you must use the specialized "-TB" (Thru-Body) models to prevent the string from breaking at the bridge.

• Q: Can I cut the metal portion of the string to fit my tuners?

• A: No. Only the silk portion of the string should be wrapped around the tuning post. Wrapping the full metal winding around the post can cause the string to crack or unravel.

• Q: Are these good for fretless basses?

• A: Absolutely! The hand-polished flat wound surface is the preferred choice for fretless players as it protects the fingerboard from wear while providing a smooth, singing sustain.
