I just bought a 2008 Fender American Standard P bass and want to string it with semi flat wound strings. What is a good brand that anyone can suggest. I play 105 to 45 gauges on my other basses. Thanks.

.045, .065, .080, .100, .130 | Same here, not sure if those are going to be too bright for you....I liked the sound of them, personally. |
