^^ I agree with your thoughts about the winds, as long as they don't block the tuning mechanism Also, now after some experience with the pahoehoes, I find they work best if you stretch them as close to actual pitch as possible or within a half step or so (helps to have a clip on tuner for this...

Ahhh I just went back and saw your picture - same thing that happened to mine. I will definitely try adding a stack of washers on the ball end once I get the replacement string in - to be honest tho, despite minor tuning issues, I much prefer the tone of the pahoehoe rubbers versus the Pyramids...

Well, the uBass experiment continues.. Looks like I'm gonna put back on my dread colored pahoehoes as well for the time being.. at least until the the new E string comes from Germany - I find that now that the pahoehoes are properly stretched (about 3 weeks from being new), I can try other...

They are supposed to be the same as the ones you got. Black flatwound Pyramids. I did hear back from Paul, saying: "OK will get you a replacement UBass Low E 4th at no charge---will have it Air Mailed from factory in Germany---no spares here in USA" So there's that, at least they are good with...

This is a follow up on the black Pyramid strings.. 3234718- Did you have any issue putting on your E string? I see from your pic that that string was the closest to being wrapped around the tuner. See my pictures because the red part of the string meant for the tuner was about an inch too far...

Gotta share my story... And thank you all for sharing yours, had some good laughs at your expense lol SO my story is after a 1 set gig for our big album release party - all friends and family and new fans - so after the show everyone is hanging out and cleaning up gear - and that night I had...

So 3234718 seems like we will both soon be owners of the new Pyramid black flat strings If anyone else is interested in these, email the address I posted above, it sounds like they are making these available on a request basis only 3234718 -- on your new uBass, what was put in the orignal...

From Pyramid's official email: Good news. I discussed with the factory to make some black nylon flat wounds for Kala UBass---they said they would/could do some. Price would be about $65/set If you want some sets let me know. Next message: I am getting a set in for another...

For my Ubass (fretless acoustic mahogany) I use the same rig that I use with my "normal" bass (A 4 string Schecter Active Diamond Series) It's an Invalid Link Removed run by an Invalid Link Removed And yes, it thumps - never had an issue with it farting out - and I turn the tweeter...

Hey everyone - I posted yesterday looking for the black Pyramid flat strings for Ubass - got an answer directly from them, so thought I'd share the correspondence with you all ME: Hello! I'm writing to find out if Pyramid has available the black flatwound strings specially designed for the...

^This is what I was looking for - when I first took the Ubass out of it's case at last night's gig, the strings had slacked a full step flat - but I let it sit out for about 20-30 mins and then the tuning was more stable/reliable By the way, I know if I don't post pics, it doesn't exist, so...

I saw earlier that you use them regularly in a temple setting. How long would you say it took to go from "fresh strings in package" to "fully stable tuning"? I ask specifically because I found my strings (only about a week and a half old) to be getting BETTER stability (I've restrung it 2-3...

Hey everyone - I recently got my 1st Ubass (a sexy fretless hog) and in the last few weeks read thru ALL SEVEN MEGATHREADS on here to gather as much info as I could - it was really quite a journey getting caught up on the last few years of activity - and thank you all for your videos and sharing...
