**Q: I'm looking for acoustic bass strings for jazz tone. A long time since I bought strings . Could anyone recomend**
A: Hi there,Thank you for your query.I would suggest looking Phosphor Bronze strings rather than bronze for jazz, as they have a warmer tone.The D'addario EPBB170s, which we sell, are a good choice for acoustic bass.Kind Regards,Rachel LongstoneSales & Customer CareRich Tone Music

**Q: Also, what will the tuning be when the tensions in the strings are standard?**
A: I'm not entirely sure what you mean by the tension being standard, however I can say that I've had my strings in standard tuning since I bought them, and the tension in the strings is just right after they adjusted :) Hope this answers your question

**Q: will these fit my ibanez mikro 28.5 scale length**
A: Hi StevenYes they will fit, you will just need to cut trim them down more than usual once they are fittedThanksJackRockem Music
