1994 Ibanez SR1205FL Strings?

[zmebass76]

I just found and bought a 1994 Ibanez SR1205FL from eBay... and here's the kicker. I originally bought one of these basses brand new back in '95 when I graduated high school as a graduation gift, and then it was stolen from me in '98. I have looked and looked for one of these for YEARS, and I finally found one! Albeit it's not the exact bass that was stolen from me, it is an exact replica to the tee. I'm stoked! Any recommendations on string brand/type? I just used whatever I could afford back when I first owned this bass, but since I can be choosy now, I'd like some string tips for a fretless bass. Thanks in advance.

No one has any recommendations on fretless bass strings??

These were nice basses...I played one in the 90's and I'll eventually jump on one of these. Congrats!

Haha, should change the thread title, Ibanez's aren't the most popular thing on TB.
Can't recommend any strings for you as I've never played fretless, but nice bass!

How can Ibanez basses be so unpopular? Their top of the line basses are killer! Oh well.

Old thread, but I just picked up one of these bad boys off the bay for $229 shipped. I'm not much into fretless but for the price I couldn't pass it up. I'll probably throw some LaBella flats on it.

I opted for the DR blacks, looks great on the ebony neck and sound great.
