nick Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 (edited) Had a set of these Webstrings flats [url="http://webstrings.com/flatwound_bass_strings.html"]http://webstrings.com/flatwound_bass_strings.html[/url] on my Tokai P-Bass for a few weeks now. I have to say I'm impressed, especially considering their price. Was initially bit wary, after previous uninspiring experiences with budget strings..Hartke, Roberts (dead E-strings) etc. Used d'Addario & Ernie Ball, which I was quite happy with, but found .100 E-string of both 45-100 sets, too floppy. Going up to 50-105 Ernie Balls, and tension was all over the place & not comfortable (for me). Webstrings 50-110 I got have a great feel. Tone has settled down nicely fairly quickly too, unlike Chromes. Don't know who makes them, but have made in USA on packet. Anyone else tried them? Great flats - Recommended Edited October 5, 2008 by nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would (and will) use Webstrings again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
