Dunlops were around £45/£50 when first released but due to inflation, all their prices have rocketed. Dunlops are more 'modern' than La Bellas but still have that classic flatwound sound. I really enjoy mine on my P bass. I bought them for $45 when I was last in the US so around £36/£37.

You do know that thicker gauge strings doesn't mean warmer tone?

Every time I use mine, it sounds scooped. I have a Spark Booster, Phat Phuk, Beta Mk II and Hot Tubes which all do the BDI21 but better.

At least the pickups and machine heads are period correct. 😁

I made that suggestion in another thread and was promptly shut down. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I can't make the gig but great band.

I have been a big fan of these roundwounds for the last couple of years but they do not get much love on here. If you're after a cheaper alternative to Dunlop Super Brights, this is it. Very, very similar string at a great price. 45-105: https://www.amazon.co.uk/S-I-T-Strings-FN45105-foundations-Medium/dp/B07BZMQKZ8/ref=mp_s_a_1_7?crid=3KD4BXJYPQQMV&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.fDv0z1b2iMlDw6_PisXqHvAaBHvpMiV0hiKE2aRfM1tVlWppSW6WyAr87YTf40Nh2udhchlqzyM5Kopm5MTayIRp_FfeuFP98-eSPZe1hl4jhhFQ1oeFCjpHrQXS_lfwPgZGPIqtmwtmpYtEIQ_1-NM4oMLL_gG1KAMZrJRbEP-5lwJQev6SJDdOh5sJiRCSxi5_GlIQsFQ6Zc1NHgIvnA.AR5z8D6XBrS09Z5DEYqqtFvPI7GCZWGUpbT72YqwEp4&dib_tag=se&keywords=sit+bass+strings&qid=1728745922&sprefix=sit+bass+strings%2Caps%2C73&sr=8-7 45-125: https://www.amazon.co.uk/S-I-T-Strings-Bass-Guitar-FN545125L/dp/B07BZYHCL6/ref=mp_s_a_1_13?crid=3KD4BXJYPQQMV&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.fDv0z1b2iMlDw6_PisXqHvAaBHvpMiV0hiKE2aRfM1tVlWppSW6WyAr87YTf40Nh2udhchlqzyM5Kopm5MTayIRp_FfeuFP98-eSPZe1hl4jhhFQ1oeFCjpHrQXS_lfwPgZGPIqtmwtmpYtEIQ_1-NM4oMLL_gG1KAMZrJRbEP-5lwJQev6SJDdOh5sJiRCSxi5_GlIQsFQ6Zc1NHgIvnA.AR5z8D6XBrS09Z5DEYqqtFvPI7GCZWGUpbT72YqwEp4&dib_tag=se&keywords=sit+bass+strings&qid=1728745922&sprefix=sit+bass+strings%2Caps%2C73&sr=8-13 30-120: https://www.amazon.co.uk/SIT-Strings-Bass-FN630120L/dp/B07RTCH5ZX/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?crid=3KD4BXJYPQQMV&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.fDv0z1b2iMlDw6_PisXqHvAaBHvpMiV0hiKE2aRfM1tVlWppSW6WyAr87YTf40Nh2udhchlqzyM5Kopm5MTayIRp_FfeuFP98-eSPZe1hl4jhhFQ1oeFCjpHrQXS_lfwPgZGPIqtmwtmpYtEIQ_1-NM4oMLL_gG1KAMZrJRbEP-5lwJQev6SJDdOh5sJiRCSxi5_GlIQsFQ6Zc1NHgIvnA.AR5z8D6XBrS09Z5DEYqqtFvPI7GCZWGUpbT72YqwEp4&dib_tag=se&keywords=sit+bass+strings&qid=1728745922&sprefix=sit+bass+strings%2Caps%2C73&sr=8-4

Ten months old on my main gigging bass. Change my rounds out at the end of every year. Love the worn in tone.

After much debate, I've decided to go for a set of Lollar P pickups with my usual SIT Foundations. Thank you everyone for the input.

Yes. A distinguished 35 year career if you look at their history.

...because people on the hooch gave up their musical tastes a LONG time ago.

Er, what's the issue?

Zero issues my end.

Duplicate post.

Ah well, just return it and try again. 👍🏻

Do you only have one bass because any tone you need can be dialled in with a preamp?

I have multiple preamp pedals already.

SIT Foundations are my current rounds. Rotos are a no go for me. Rough, inflexible, die quickly.

Yeah... this video helped immensely. Leaning toward the Dimarzio now.

The band is very much amps/cabs on stage so no IEMs. I think it's a great sounding bass but I'm looking for some more mid range punch. It excels at the low end, cut treble, woody sort of sound which is great for blues and funk but it always lacks a little bite IMO.

Tech 21 Bass DI. Unless you're adamant that a valve must be inside the box.

Does anyone have experience with the Seymour Duncan SPB-2?
