Best strings for a 1970's Ernie Ball Earthwood Acoustic Bass Guitar?

[Mark Eckerle]

Hi all,

What are the best strings to use on an original 1970's Ernie Ball Acoustic Earthwood Bass?

When I look on the Ernie Ball Website, the Earthwood Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Bass strings range from 45 to 95 gauge (Sku: P02070).

But the remaining strings I have from a previous set are:

Ernie Ball Custom Gauge Roundwound Bass String - 70 Gauge (sku? 1670) and 105 Gauge (sku? 1698) - picture attached.

I was hoping to go with the same strings, but don't see them...

Thanks and best regards,
Mark
