Tribute L2500 bass and string thickness ???

[LionelGL]

Hi,

first of all, sorry for my poor english.

I bought a G&L tribute L2500 bass and I enjoy playing with it !
But something quite strange happened. I tried to change the (5) strings. But when I tried to install the B string (130 inch) I noticed that the hole of the Tribute is to tight !!! I think it would match with 115 inch or maybe 120 but not sure...
So I wonder :
- what are the strings thicknesses originally coming with, or recommended for this bass ?
-Do you, L2500 Tribute owners, face the same issue ?
- wich string do you use ?

Thanks in advance for your prompt answers !

See this post in our Knowledgebase forum: What gauge & brand of strings does G&L use on their guitars?

Hope this helps.
