Description

FMI Original Weedwacker Bass Strings

HOT PINK FLUORESCENT STRINGS IN THIS AUCTION, OTHER COLORS IN OTHER AUCTIONS OR OUR STORE here

We ARE the World's leading manufacturer of weedwacker bass strings, AND in all colors of the rainbow.
World Famous for real.

Rockabilly Slap Bass Strings !!!
Also great for Bluegrass, Psychobilly and anyone starting to play Upright who wants to learn on strings MUCH easier on the hands and fingers than steel strings.
We are dyeing these strings ourselves and go to great lengths to make them consistent in color, colorfast and hold up under slap bass playing.

High tension Set of Kevlar Core Nylon

Ends of D & G strings are knotted then swaged with a stop sleeve(metal cylinder pinched on tightly), E and A are just knotted to keep the string from pulling thru the tailpiece, and all 4 strings fitted with a label giving the note and gauge/diameter. All the kevlar core strings are sent out
in 4 string sets of these gauges:
E .170, A .155, D .105, G .095.

We now have Kevlar Core Weedwackers in 19 Designer Colors available in auctions and our store.

We have 2 other colors that GLOW BRIGHTLY under BLACK LIGHTS too, available in another auction if you'd like Hot Pink or Fluorescent Yellow.


We have worked with numerous rockabilly, psychobilly, bluegrass and other specialist styles of music bass players here at our shop - worked with them to find the exact combination of weedwacker and other strings that would satisfy them.
Know what we found out??

There is NO "ONE SIZE FITS ALL" kind of weedwackers or other strings that will satisfy everyone.

Everyone has their personal opinion and taste and we help them pick out the most suitable combination of strings to suit them.

We offer the heaviest gauge Nylon with Kevlar Core E and A strings made which are needed to get enough tension and volume at all, thinner gauges just won't do for anyone I've worked with.

We offer light, medium, and high tension D and G strings which cover all customer needs for nylon weedwacker strings.

The light and medium tension are the solid nylon black or forest green available in lighter gagues for superlight action D and G strings.

We also offer Supernil E and A for more volume and sustain on the E and A than weedwackers will provide, and some players just want the steel E string being left on there, and SOME insist on the E and A being steel along with D and G weedwackers.
Supernil E & A are nylon fiber core wound with silver wire, flexible for slapping and louder than weedwackers. $59 for an E & A pair by themselves, or $75 with D/G Weedwackers for a Hybrid set.

Most players just go with a straight set of our weedwacker strings and are quite happy with them.

Supernil E & A with FMI Weedwacker D & G is the next most popular arrangement of strings for slap bass players, and bluegrass players dig this setup.

Order this Hybrid Weedwacker set thru another auction.

Highest quality Nylon material with kevlar core, and best research to find the best guages of strings for strongest sound while maintaining ease of slap, AND enough tension to hold the bridge in place during aggressive slapping.
Lighter guage weedwackers have been too loose for some aggressive slappers and their bridges have come loose while playing.
THESE Weedwackers eliminate that problem.

These medium-high tension weedwacker strings are EASY on the fingers because of the lower tension than steel strings, smooth nylon surface and thicker diameter than steel strings.
Play LONG Gigs without tearing your fingers up!

If you can't afford $250 gut, these are the next best thing going for great slapping sound and action, and WARM tone to the MAXXX!!

They amplify well so why wait any longer, grab a set or two of weedwackers for your bass.

Lifetime warranty against fraying or breakage.

The slap sound gives a good clean click without heavy metallic slap like steel strings do.

Great for Bluegrass and Gospel as well, can be heard throughout a LARGE room, and if you're amping then of course they'll be heard well at any gig.
Click the buy-it-now button to order now.

WE SHIP promptly via First Class Mail all over the world.

For the lowest tension weedwackers get our Forest Green or Black Solid Nylon line set, they are the only colors we make in a solid line(NOT kevlar core D/G) anymore, thus the only colors that we offer lower tension on. Gauges are E .170, A .155 both kevlar core; and solid nylon .095 .080 and .065.
You get 5 strings in this light-to medium gauge set so you can customize to work best for you.

HOT PINK FLUORESCENT strings thru THIS auction.
