GHS Bassics

[Shoewreck]

Already had these on my bass some time ago. And it was the first time I wanted another set of the same strings!
So, currently I have a fresh set installed. Warm, fat, punchy, growly and crisp - that all can be together! Not much zing, but it's OK to me to leave some space for cymbals...

Boomers without the silk ends.

I got Boomers at the moment, loving them!

What's the use of silk-ends? Are silky strings more hardware-friendly? I wash my strings regularly, and putting silk into alcohol confuses me a little.
