BassPlayer "Wine Testing" from 2004

[Ryan Mohr]

I found this an interesting read, I will certainly refer back. Here's a link: http://www.ipass.net/davesisk/music/...eviewDec04.pdf

A few things I thought were strange though. In the tone charts, it shows La Bella flats with more treble and less bass than Chromes.

I wonder if they let the flats break in at all. It's hard to know what a set of flats will eventually sound like when they are fresh out of the pack.

Even rounds don't settle in for me until an hour or so of playing.

+1, I wonder how long they let them settle in.

Anyone else check this out? It's quite a good resource IMO.

No problem, although it isn't the be-all-end-all it gives you good idea what strings sound like.

Something like Basstasters.com started but has been idle for a couple years now.

Shame.
