I just wanted to know if anyone on here uses the Ernie Ball 2804 Flats. I have them on a Geddy and a MIM Jazz and I really like them. If you use them or have used them, how long do you keep them on your bass before changing them out for new ones? Just curious, I've had mine on for 3-4 months so far.

Just asking. Has anyone else tried the lights 2808 or the 2806? Thanks.

I have a set but haven't put them on yet. I'm curious as what to expect from them as far as sound, tone, highs, and lows. I use the 2806 now. Can I expect less tension of the strings and neck? Thanks.
