I like 'em once they get all that zing worn off.
Top end is for guitarists....and cymbals. And flutes.
Me play bass. Ugh.

I love that twangy new string sound! everything just seems to ring out like a dream, especialy harmonics and slap, I love it! i think it's great just whaking up the low bass and high top on the eq and spending the afternoon jumping around my bedroom in a slapping frenzy! (my new string ritual)

Picato strings? They're made in UK and are good strings.
They're not really available here in the US, as they don't have
a distributor. I was able to get some promo sets shipped over
from England, they're actually quite good, maybe worth
trying out some time.
Cheers,
