Slap/Finger strings for Godin Freeway 4

Sign in to disble this ad
My friends uses a Godin Freeway 4 and is always complaining that the D'Addario's sound flat (or something like that) after a few weeks or so. what kind of strings would you recommend for slap/finger style on Godin for nice tones? I hear good things about TI.

I use Fender 7150s because they keep their brightness for a long time. Initially I found them too bright but that mellows after 6-8 hours of breaking in. I can get Marcus-like slap tones on a set that is several months old with proper pickup blending and EQ.
