Love this set, whatever it is. They came with my '07 Fender fretless Jazz bass, but I don't know what kind they are. Anyone have a clue? They're very thumpy, but also have some really great mids and low highs. I like them, whatever they are. |

| La Bella? I know they have blue silks and are classified by strong thump.

Look like Ernie Ball Flats to me! | Thanks guys! I'll do some research and find out. I'm saving up for some TI Jazz Flats when I get the cash, but that'll be a while yet what with their outrageous prices. Maybe for Christmas... We'll see! |

Look like Ernie Ball Flats to me! | I have just gone through researching a set just like this and I think Jason has this one right on ... same silk as Chromes, but wound shorter at the tuner, and gold balls .. |

Match made in heaven. Thought this was the best pic I ever took of the bass, then noticed my polish cloth snuck in there.

My '85 MIJ Ibanez 5 fretted, and my early 80s Cheepaz P copy have rounds. DRs and Rotos (I think), respectively.

What strings are you using and would they reach on my bass? |
