Anyone tried GHS pressurewound on a piezo fretless bass?

Sign in to disble this ad
I am pretty set in my sound but gas is relentless.

I like the warm acoustic piezo sound. TI acousticores on one fretless, LaBella black nylon flats on the other, both piezo.


Can anyone tell me about GHS pressurewound sound on piezo fretless?

Thanks

I've tried them on a Vantage ABG fretless and my current Carvin AC40 Fretless. As much as I like them for my electric basses, I thought they were totally useless as an ABG string. They make it sound exactly like an electric, which is not why I bought those basses.

My current ABG strings of choice are light gauge GHS Precsion Flats. It gives the bass sort of an uprightish tone, and doesn't have the brittle, brite, and noise of bronze strings. I hope this helped in some way.
