Yea Flats are an investment i rarely change them , they seem to imrove and mellow out over time and use. the only time i usualy put a new set on is when i buy a instrument and change the strings before doing a set up this is the case with the olympias, i have just bought a Vintera Jazz strung with roundwounds and want to try it with flats i have 3 fender p basses 2 strung with Thomastiks a 51 jap re issue and 62 mex re issue and the other a 57 classic ressiue with a set of Maruszcyk flats they all sound good to me and are comfortable playing wise , The Thomastiks are lower tension , the Marusczyks are slightly tighter but not as high tension as the La Bellas.will be intersting to see where the olympias sit in comparison.

Yea i have tried and used most brands of flats over the years , la Bella Thomastik , Ernie ball Rotosound , D addario , Fender etc i recently tried Maruszczyk Flats which are good value at £26 from Bass direct . just thought id try these , and see if they match up to any of the strings ive used previously. il let you know my findings when ive tried them regards Jay

Anyone looking for a reasonable priced set of flats try these they are less than half the price of the usual brands i use i have tried just about every brand of Flats over the years and decided to try these Olympia Flats i made a offer On ebay they cost me £13, il give a review when i have fitted them and tried them out heres a link https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/332486029353?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 regards Jay
