I have tried the Flex steels on my J and my Tobias. i usually shy away from steels. I love the harmonic content but found them to be "clanky". The Flex Steels have a bright funky sound without being harsh. I haven't changed back to my balanced tension so I must be happy. Oh, I play old school...

Smith basses are as good as they get. But Ken Smith has poor people skills so he gets a bad rap. But his basses rule!

Whatever you get, have it set up by a good luthier. Figure $100, maybe less.
