D'addario black TapeWound 50-105 Any One?

Sign in to disble this ad
Guys & Gals,

I have a Oscar Schmitt acoustic/electric. 32/33" scale
Almost never play it plugged in, so I am looking for the best & loudest strings for this bass. Never liked the Phosphorus Bronze D'addario, had 45.65.80.100 Chromes in the medium scale like these the best but want a bit more volume

Right now I have GHS pressurewounds, and don't like em either.

So any suggestions, would lighter set of Chromes like the 40.60.75.95 be better

Or black Tapewounds or lighter gage DR lo-rider nickels like the 40.60.80.100 set

something that has more presence.

suggestions?

Thank You in advance.

I'm by no means a string expert, but if these new Fender flats are indeed similar to chromes, those tapewounds I got not too long ago were pretty loud in comparison IMO.
