Going to put them on my Precision bass first, then move them on to my acoustic to give them a try. Anyone else used flatwound strings before? To those not in the know: 'Standard' strings are generally roundwound, which means that the wrap around the core wire is a round shape. Flatwound means that the outer wrap is flattened, and is generally considered to give the bass a more upright bass sound. For more information, see ...

They are definitely higher than when I got the bass. I was thinking of lowering them by messing with the bridge and lowering the little things the strings go over after the holes ( sorry for not knowing what they are ). If I was to do this would I have to mess with the truss rod or anything else? I know a lot of people say take it to a professional,and he can fix it! If I keep doing ...

I've never really used pedals before. I've got an old Digitech guitar distortion pedal, but it doesn't sound the greatest on my bass. I was thinking of maybe getting a bass overdrive pedal or a chorus pedal, or maybe a flanger pedal. I'm really not sure lol. Never tried them. I noticed there is some Ibanez pedals fairly cheap. So which brands should I avoid?
