Thanks for the advice, I'll try some different flatwounds first.

I recently bought an Epiphone Viola bass and put a set of D'Addario flatwounds on it. It's lovely to play but during a gig last week I found it a lot harder when my fingers were sweaty - very hard to glide my fingers over the strings. Is there anything that would avoid this, perhaps nylonwound?

Thanks.
