| I was asking the same thing, and Evah Pirazzi Weichs seemed to be the majority reply. I'm still waiting for the disposable income to try 'em. I'm currently using Lambert Deluxes on one bass but I don't think I can reccomend them for your needs...they are very gutlike, so there's not much power or definition in the lower strings. They slap very well though. Those lower strings don't bow too well either. You don't really need to have your action way up for slapping, by the way. I have the bass with the Lamberts set with the G at about 3/8" at the end of the fingerboard, and my other bass is lower yet...with the lower tension string you may want to set your action higher than mine, but I'm finding it's working for me. Later this week I'm gonna probably put some Velvet Animas on the E and A string of the Lamberts bass, and see how that works...I'm actually liking the D and G a lot. |
