(More customer reviews)I've used these on a Precision bass (P-bass) and they are VERY nice! These are equal to the reputable D'Addario XL Chrome flatwounds that are so popular. I've used both strings and, honestly, cannot tell a different in feel or tone--AT ALL! If you are looking to bring out that classic, warm, punchy, "boom" tone you heard on all those Motown hits--this is the kind of string set to get. Put these on a P-bass and you'll be pumping out a full, warm tone with plenty of punch. These are stainless steel strings so they are a little bit stiffer than the nickel strings that you might be used to. These take a little getting used to but once you're used them, they feel softer and have plenty of pop to give you a good punch in your tone. Most flats are stainless steel and roundwounds are commonly nickel so if you're switching over from rounds, expect to have sore fingers for a week or so. Stainless strings are a little bit louder than nickel too, but you should still try to have your action as low as possible (without excess fret buzz) to make it easier on your fingers to deal with these strings. These strings will give you the warmth and punch that has been the standard bass tone on hit records from the 60's until today. The most famous and ubiquitous bass tone is flatwound strings (like these) on a Fender Precision bass. For all-purpose, fits in nearly any style, "work horse" bass tone you can't go wrong with that combo. These strings will get you there.
