In his hofner he used hofner/pyramid stock strings
On his ric he used maxima (ric stock) when he could no longer get them he switched to TI flats which are the nearest in tone
On his fender I'm not 100% sure but I know on the botr album he used Danny laines bass and they where strung with black nylon
I ain't got a clue about his other basses

hofner bass
rickenbacker
Ernie Ball Regular Slinky's
Standard Dean markley blue steel bass strings if that's any help
I use them, and I love them. They have a fluid feel to them, like it just fits naturally. They sound excellent. They're very dependable, as well as beautiful. My only problem is the strings- I hatyed the strings that the bass came with. I instantly replaced them with some Fender strings. But other than that, this is the ideal bass. I love it!
