    Best strings for P-Bass Junior?

    I have a MIM Fender P-Bass Junior. I bought a set of Fender 5250 Short Scale Bass Strings (supposedly the strings that come new on this bass). As I was putting them on, the E string snapped right at the start of the tapered end section before I even got it tuned up to pitch. I don't know if...

    What's up with Elixir?

    I started using Elixir strings when they first emerged on the scene. I had an endorsement for a few years and continued using them even after that. They've always been pricey but lately they are like TI price and what's worse is they're hard to find. Are they going out of business or something?

    String Suggestions for someone who likes Flatwounds but also slaps sometimes (in the same song)

    It says it all in the title this time. I am finding my string preference leans towards flat wounds but sometimes I need the round wound bite, especially for slap on a few songs (and sometimes in the same song as a flat wound tone). I tried a search hear and on google but did not get any hits...

    One step brighter than Flatwounds for recording

    I currently have La Bella LTF-4A Flatwounds on my vintage Rickenbacker. I love soft, warm sound live through a bass amp, but not so much for home recording, where you have to consider how the mix sounds through smaller speakers. I end up trying to get more definition out of the bass...
