bassbiscuits Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 (edited) [quote name='jonunders' timestamp='1476481590' post='3154770'] After speaking to Mark at bass direct I went for the labella 760. I couldn't have imagined the difference between the types of strings. I already feel comfortable with them and cannot see my self returning to round wounds. [/quote] Good choice - I've settled on these strings and love them. Happy playing! Edited October 15, 2016 by bassbiscuits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 I like sound of flats, on a P especially -- who doesn't? 😎 -- but I absolutely HATE the feel of them. That smoothness feels almost slimy, it really makes my skin crawl. Eucchhh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always clean them with Duraglit before putting them on the instrument. Seems to help. Edited October 15, 2016 by Dan Dare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
