Planning on stringing my marcus miller jazz with flats just wondering if anyone has used the sadowsky flats and what they think? would they come close to thomastik flats?

you gonna get some off george .. I have been wondering if I shoudl try them too
I have read about them on here .. just search them .. the consensus seems to be that they are brightish but not as bright as chromes and I think someone said that they were made by labella

supposed to be nice strings
I was planning on putting an order in this week but I bought another bass instead haha
I'm so full of g.a.s. I should float

Excellent flats. Tension is higher than rather loose Thomastiks, but not too much, just right, IMO.

Soundwise - balanced string to string tone, they have thump and definition and sweetness. In comparison, LaBellas 760FL are a bit more thumpy and a bit less defined. Chromes are clankier and less thumpy then Sads.
They have smooth, shiny surface.

Overall, I just love them!

What nemo said.

Gorgeous musical flats, kind of a modernized classic flat.

I think of them as slightly turbocharged Labella DT flats.
