Good Playing & Sounding Flatwound Strings.

I've installed the strings. I Can't Use Anything Else But Flatwound Strings, To Me The Standard Strings Is Like Playing With Sandpaper. I just play this Bass about twice a month. My Peavey Foundation Bass, The E String (#4) Is To Long For This Bass. But I Had A Set Like It Before And It Would Break. But It Was Also A Different Name Brand. So Far This String Hasn't Broke Yet. That's The Only Thing That I Have Any Complaint About This Set Of Strings.
I WILL CONTINUE TO USE ROTOSOUND BRAND ON BOTH OF MY PEAVEY ELECTRIC BASS GUITAR'S,
THANKS ROTOSOUND !

It's a matter of taste

but I've been using these strings for many years on a 1987 G&L SB-1 bass. The sound never fails to satisfy. Before stringing them up take a minute to wipe the strings good with a soft dry cloth and they will feel great right off the bat.Read full review

Bright deep flats

Brighter sounding flats than the labellas for sure. Still has deep bass. The sustain is remarkable. Have these paired up with a custom wound set of domingers on a p bass. hard rock is where these excel. Phil Lynott's bass tone is spot on. Read full review

Roto flat wounds strings good value

In using round wounds, I would get squeaks from finger noise when doing pull offs. With flat wounds, I no longer get the annoying noise - make practicing more enjoyable. Wish i had made the switch sooner. Read full review

Flats on a Marcus Miller Jazz Bass

Tone is good but I prefer old strings so I'll probably like the tone better as they age. Same with the texture - a bit sticky right now will probably smooth out with age. String tension is the only issue I have with these. The G and D strings seem to have much higher tension than the A and E strings. Actually I thought the same thing about D'Addario Chromes.Read full review

My favorite bass strings.

I have tried other brands and I keep coming back to Rotosound Jazz Flat strings. I have them on all of my basses. I won't have anything else. I love the deep rich warm tone.

Flatwounds

First time using Jazz 77s, bought them for a MIM fretless jazz bass. Very nice product with a great sound for this particular application. Will definitely use them on the fretless from here on in.

The best for all genres

After many many years of playing I have never been disappointed by Rotosound strings. I use the tapewounds as well. I have even used Rotosounds on my upright bass. Highly recommend
