    What are the best strings for me?

    I am just wondering what my next pair of strings should be. I like a punchy tone with a lot of growl. (I love growl!) Now I have a pair of GHS Bass Boomers 40-100 (which was supposed to be 45-105). I really don't know what my next pair of strings should be. Thanks! BassOliverB
