| B-string on TI Jazz flats
Sign in to disble this ad
My 2 basses, a 5-string and a short-scale (both fretless) 4-string are strung completely differently. The short-scale has TI Jazz Flats on it and the 5er has heavy gauge D'addario XLs.
I'd like to use the same strings on both basses as the difference in tension means that I have to adjust my technique depending on what bass I play which is a system that I really can't work with.
I don't care about tension much in terms of feel (thought I was a high tension guy with fender flats, but I switched to TIs and I like the feel just as much) but I worry quite a lot about whether the B-string on the TIs will sound floppy or not. I'm very happy in terms of the B-string producing an audible pitch rather than just low-sound, but I prefer the tone of the TIs.
Anyone had any experience with TIs on a 5-string?
