In an unusual occurrence for me, I broke a string at church yesterday morning. It was the F string (essentially a slightly de-tuned G string for those used to standard tuning). Fortunately having six strings to choose from gave me plenty of options to finish the song and the double-ball design made it easy to replace it with a spare; the rest of the group didn’t even notice!
Back to Status Graphite this morning for a new set. The old ones have done pretty well – it has been so long since I last replaced the strings that they seem much more expensive than I remember although a bit of checking shows that Status are still competitive (even ignoring the fact that you can’t get custom double-ball six string bass sets from that many places anyhow!).
