I am a Thomastik JF-344 fan, but wanted to try something else for my fretted Bass. These strings have low tension so very comfortable to play and the sound is very warm (deep) indeed. I was surprised by the overall results on this bass and will keep those going forward. Compared to steel strings this bass has now a completely different character. As the sound is darker en dryer I did also some recording tests and they succeeded in this situation as well. I did not have to change the setup of the bass due to the low tension but can imagine that this could happen for others. The low E and A are at the ball end thicker than standard steel strings so one has to push harder to get them properly set in the bridge. All in all I love them.

These strings play so smooth and deep and still they are very articulate, and as a bonus they look so good on my bass with all black hardware! My new favorites, coming from TI flats...

Maybe good but not for me

Well what can I say, based on the videos I was expecting more of a double bass sound out of those, but they only sound weak and muffled to me. But then again, I m not at all experienced with this kind of tapewound strings.

I love those strings, the best thing about them is their feel on the fingers, i never had bruses or any problems with hurting fingers because they feel like silk. awesome, also the sound is awesome !
