he says they're nylon wound, are they tru bass 88's? something else, they sound AWSOME I'm lusting for that tone

Maybe Fender tapewounds.

La Bella perhaps?

I love that vid. Although, that purple bass?

nah, but when he swaps basses for that jazz and kills it with a pick

I want that one. I remember having a hofner with black nylon strings, killer killer sound!

so would all of those different strings (roto, la bella, fender) sound pretty much like the tone he was getting if I put them on my jazz?
