Need strings with THICKNESS & THUNDER out of the box

Sign in to disble this ad
I have a Cirrus. I put on new lo riders last night. While playing in church I noticed that these strings do not have the fullness I am looking for. These strings are 100% awesome for slap and pop but fingerstyle wasn't reaching it this morning. The music director even commented that the bass sounded thinner than usual this morning.

I know from previous experience from owning fat beams that it takes a while for DR strings to "kick in" and sound to their full potential.

I would like to know for future experience what are strings that have the full sound out of the box?

p.s I had to play with the EQ to get it to sound ok, but I hate playing with EQ during live services because the sound is uneven. Its either too much bass, no highs, small mids, or vice versa. I like to leave it flat and just tweak the volume and pickup knobs
