I know this ar is a pedal building forum but I assume a lot of you here also play bass or guitar figure I'd throw this out there.
So I'm thinking of changing to custom gauge set of strings. Wanting a bit more bottom end but I like the .009 to .010 high E lite but want heavier on the low end.
I've used places like "Just Strings " Guitar center and the local guitar store (when we had one.) Now all I have near me is a Keyboard/Piano store and Guitar center. Anybody got a place to share where they get theirs at?
If you have several or more guitars and basses then you know how expensive restringing all of them can get. Luckily for me I don't like the bright tinny sound a new set of strings and prefer old worn strings with a little mud so I don't change them quite as often as most others. To be honest ,now I just replace broken strings until the lower wound strings lose their sizzle then it's time for a new set.
And while I'm at it where do any of you go when you want to upgrade guitar parts? Pots bridges tuners concerning pots anybody have preferences on pots. Spent 20 on 4 CTS pots on Amazon. Can't seem to find Bournes pots for a decent price any more. and now it seems pots there's only like 3-5 companies making them anymore. Aside from the uber expensive custom made pots. So any thoughts on this subject?
