Love these strings! They sound and feel great! I've tried a bunch of other flats and nothing else comes close.

These are nice strings with good tone. I prefer the feel of LaBella flats....but.... these were a lot less expensive, and I was working on a parts bass that didn't want to dump a lot of money into. But these strings saved me some money and feel fine. They are brighter and less thumpy that the LaBellas, which is OK. I'm fully capable of turning those little nobs on my amplifier marked bass-treble-middle, to get any sound I want with these strings. They're good flats.

I have been professional bass player for about 50 years now. I have used Fender equipment mostly. I recently purchased an Ibanez 300E bass guitar. I replaced the original strings with Fender Flatwound 50's. Within a week the G string unraveled at the tuner. I got a new string from them. I purchased the same set again. The A string started to twang and would not stay tuned. I returned them here. Got a refund. I purchased these strings. I used to use GHS in the past, and don't know why I stopped. The first difference between the two string sets is that the Fender's E is too deep to hear at times and I have to turn the bass control down. This alters the other strings and the whole set is bland. The GHS are not superbrite and twangy. They are the smoothest deepest all around great sound I have played on this new bass. I think the Fender strings are made for the Fender bass line and nothing else. My Ibanez has a preamp built in. I think this didn't work with the Fender metal. I tried everything to make the Fender strings sound good but could not. The A string would not sound when doing riffs, so it sounded terrible on stage. I put these GHS strings on today, and played them tonight on stage and they were very nice. The deep tones rang out across the fretboard in harmony. No longer was the E too bassy and the G string tinny and A not resonant and the D was nowhere to be heard. So, my conclusion is that Fender strings on Fender Guitars and GHS on the rest of them. I play different genres of music. I play rock, but also play smooth jazz, blues and country. I do not slap, pop or crackle. I just play standard bass in a few bands. These strings really sounded great tonight and the band thought so also.

i can't tell you how many times I have installed thrse strings n numerous basses. They aare silky smooth and your fingers just glide over them. So easy to play. A great price for a long-lasting string set. They usually last more than a year, with the great sounding deep bass with just the right amount of brightnesss. And they are available in sizes to fit all my basses. But I can't stress how silky smooth they are.

These strings were amazing for me and I love them on this particular bass. I have a Hondo P-Bass (I know, but it was free) and had Ernie Ball Steel Strings on it prior. The sound was very thin, twangy, and metallic with the Ernie Ball strings. After reading lots of reviews, blogs, and forums I decided to try the GHS flatwounds. All the reviews I read said that they give a warmer fuller sound, some may call it dull or muffled. Knowing that this is exactly what I wanted to get out of this bass, I tried these strings. AMAZING DIFFERENCE!! These strings provided an instant and hugely monumental difference to my cheap Hondo bass. I'm not going to claim that it made this bass sound like a top dollar modern bass, but it did take a bass that I didn't like to play and listen to and a bass that I enjoy playing and has a nice warm full thump to it. The new strings brought out a wonderful tone, enhanced the harmonics, and did give the bass a more vintage somewhat upright sound. All from a set of amazing strings. If you enjoy a warm full sound from strings that are nice to play on, then give these strings a try. They are inexpensive enough that even if you don't like them it wasn't like you had to trade your first born for them. And that is especially important when you have a bass like mine where the strings have more value that the bass itself. Now, if you like a brighter sound for playing some rock or metal, then these strings probabaly are not for you. They will give you a wonderful warm tone but they are not as bright and poppy as round wound steel strings. I have Ernie Balls on an Ibanez for that particular sound. Know your sound and the sound you are looking for. Then do your research. These strings worked great for me. That took a crap sounding bass and turned it into a whole new instrument. But this sound may not be what you are looking for. So, read the forums, ask other players who play the same bass you do about strings, spend some time checking reviews. And if by some amazing chance someone you know already has these strings, give them a play. All in all, great strings, great price, great tone. May or May not work for you or on your particular bass. But it's worth trying and it's not cost prohibative to do so.

I've been starting to put these strings on my customers' basses and everyone loves them. Almost as bright as round wound strings but with no string noise and the great feel of flat wound strings. On a Fender P-bass it gives an authentic 70s - 80's sound and on modern basses with active electronics they can sound super lively and once you get used to the feel you'll never go back to round wound bass strings!

I like these strings. My first flats so I can't compare to other flats. As expected, the tone does not have the high frequencies that you get from round wound strings, but there's a nice thump you can't really get from rounds. The strings are so smooth! I have a Ibanez TMB100 (34" scale"). I had to wind the fat part of the string about half a turn around the tuner post on the E and G string because the strings were a bit too long (refer to pic), but apparently other players report that it's not a problem. It's been a few weeks and the strings still sound great. They're staying in tune. Tension is good. They don't hurt my fingertips and I can fairly easily do a little bending. My only complaint is the purple silk. I colored it black with a permanent marker.
