alternative to half rounds

Sign in to disble this ad
I like the tension of D'Addario's half rounds on my jazz bass, but not the tone. Anyone have experience with these strings and know of a string that has the same tension but (what they consider to be) a "better" tone? Thanks.

I've never tried the D'Addario's, but I have GHS Brite Flats on my Precision and I like them a lot. Of course IMO & YMMV.

What do you mean by "better tone?"
