Thomasticks

[realbadgroove]

I just got two six sets of thomasticks one round and one flat. The flats sound great on my 6 fretless, unlike alot of flats they are bright but still have a nice flat sound. Very jazzy. The rounds are great and less tence than any string I have played thus far. Over all grade B+

B+ ? How would you rate them compared to (Roundwounds)
DR Low Beams.
D'Addario Nickel XLs,
Ken Smith Round Wounds.

I'm seriously Thinking about getting a set. . . but if I can get someone else to do my thinking for me . . . :-)

Nice spelling.


+1 to Buster, what did you use earlier?

I like the TI's.
I started with Fender rounds on my Squire P-Bass. Next I tried D'Addario's. I went the same route when I bought my Fender Jazz. I next tried those Markely <sp?> freeze dried cryogenic strings. I didn't care for those.

Then, based on a recommendation, I tried the TI "Power Bass" strings. I like these ALOT.
I have since added a set of TI Jazz Flats to the old Squier P.

+1 on the TI Powerbass and Jazz Flats. I use the Powerbass on my Fender Jazz and Musicman Stingray and Sterling basses and the flats on my Godin A4 fretless. I really like the jazz flats for fretless. However, I didn't like the TI flats on my Precision. Fot that bass, I use LaBella flats which are higher tension.

I just put a set of the power bass on my 50's claasic P a couple of weeks ago and so far they are great strings...very sexy.

Oh spelling, my bad.

The round wounds are ok but I was only able to get a really light gauge set in six for some reason it may have been the guy that I ordered them from. Anyhow I put them on my usa cirrus six and the strings have almost no tension which would be great on a bass with high tension problems but on my cirrus I had to put a little back bow in the neck after putting them on which I found strange because the bass had a bit too much back bow to start with. Over all they sound great and would work well if you are looking for less tension on a bass with high action. Great strings wrong application. The flats are awesome and even though they are pricey I will continue to use them and already ordered 2 more sets.

The TI powerounds i put on have about the same tension as the 7150 nickel Fenders i had on my P bass before. I hear about the low TI tension but it wasnt there in my case.

[Lokire]

The Jazz Rounds and Jazz Flats are the ones with low tension.

I'm using the TI Power Bass strings on my Celinder and they're a really good match. Christian recommends the DR Hi Beams, but I'm loving the TI's.
