Strings?
The E looks like a Jaegar. The A a Dominant maybe and the other two either Superflexible or Orig. Flex with faded silk. I would need to see the ball ends under the tailpiece as well as a better shot of the other end inside the pegbox.
Which Flexocors did he suggest? The Originals might be too thick for her. The Flex. 92s would be slightly softer. Other choices are Evah Pirazzi or BelCantos. Ask her teacher. All of these are the top used professional orchestra strings. The Evah's from Pirastro now come in a lighter Weich gauge. I havent used them yet but may thy them soon on my old English. I used the regular gauge Evah's on my Gilkes last week in concert. Now I am back to Flexocor with that Bass and the Evah's will go on my Lott model. I have Belcantos in my Hart Bass now and had Original Flex's on my Gilkes before the Evah's so I use them all myself.
