Yes. The Elixir NanoWeb bass strings sound/feel exactly like NanoWeb guitar strings; which are punchy, bright, and everlasting. Not thin or overly bright either like some brands. Also great smooth feel and zero string-squeak. I currently have their bass .065 on my custom 7, and their bass .060 on my custom 6. Love 'em. For an 8-string in F# I would use their guitar NanoWeb .068 or their bass NanoWeb .070. Since the guitar string would be cheaper I'd try that 1st.

Sounds good, ill try the 68

I'm tempted to bring in one of my leftover 68s and restring it right there in the store so I can try it out, because the guitar played sooo nice other than that flubby 8th string.

Awesome man, I knew it would. Congrats

A 68? Fuck, I used a 0.75 and It was floppy.

Sure the core was really thin.

Firstly, i thought i'd post this in here since its a small matter instead of making a new thread and cluttering up the place. Soooooo....

.....Got this baby last week and love it to bits, although i thought i'd add the old binding trick. I liked it at first but im kinda not sure about it.

What you guys think? Yey or Ney?
