extremely mellow
AlexThe 22.11.2018
Theses bass strings are very mellow, I used to use them on an acoustic bass that I converted to fretless, they were too mellow for that so I later switched to a pair of flatwounds and that worked much better. These strings are not bad by any means, just very mellow and devoid of any brightness. They are not muffled but have reasonably long and deep sustain.

Nice tone - Not so sure about the finish
Redtapir 07.06.2022
In pursuit of a nice warm, mellow "Jazz" tone I tried a set of the GHS tapewounds, which came well reviewed. Once they had settled (after around 10 hours of playing) the tone was actually pretty good and close to what I was after. Warm and smooth but still with enough definition to guard against sounding "wooly". They were a really good fit for the Jazz group I play in.

The only downside for me is the feel of the strings. Like Labella tapewounds, the GHS wraps are a little too plastic like for my taste. As such they feel (to me) cheaper than their tone would suggest. I ended up swapping these for a set of D'addario tapewounds which have a sweet tone and a smoother velvety feel to them.

In short, if you don't mind the feel of these strings I would recommend them for their warm defined tone.

toucher lisse, son chaud
LionelB 17.06.2011
Toucher "smooth" et très souple, spécial mais très agréable surtout sur une fretless. Le tirant 105-50 correspond en équivalent filet métal à un 95-45, ce qui à mon sens est parfait sur une fretless (question de gout).
Jeu de corde idéal pour les bassistes fretless qui veulent avoir un son à la fois "rond" et "miaulant" ("mwah sound" comme disent les anglais, ou "à la Jaco" comme disent d'autres). Idéal aussi pour les bassistes qui ne veulent pas ruiner la précieuse touche de leur basse chérie...
Autre avantage : aucune oxydation, un jeu peut vous faire facilement plus d'un an sans altération du son.
Plus inattendu, en travaillant sa main droite, on peut avoir des sons à la limite du synthébass. Ces cordes répondent aussi très bien dans un jeu "sec" à la limite du slap. Bien sur ça n'est pas "clinquant" comme du slap avec des cordes metal/filet rond mais ca sonne vraiment tres "sec" et très précis quand on malmène un peu les cordes.
D'autres fabricants de black nylon proposent des cordes encore plus lisses (on sent une légère aspérité sur les filets des GHS 3060, ce qui pourrait être amélioré). Mais les tirants proposés sont à mon sens beaucoup trop gros chez la concurrence. Mon jeu de corde préféré sur fretless depuis des années.
