Smooth flats I've used DR Legends and GHS precision flats super smooth.

My 4401 Lakland and Ibanez SR530 both with Bartolini mk1's have TI flats. They sound awesome.

That's a beautiful site!!! :bassist::thumbsup:

Yep flats take time, but you will love them the longer you play them.

The flats look like GHS precision flats with the purple silk. GLWTS!

I have a Skyline 4401 and this is my second. I sold the first and regretted it. I have a 72 pbass that is retired. I would love to get a Duck Dunn or Bob Glaub pbass. Hope eventually to make that happen. But as everyone states the Skylines play so well and the fit and finish are outstanding.

I hope you get your babies back and they catch the rat bastards who stole them.

Doesn't Geddy Lee use these. I thought I read he does.

I finally came into the TI flats world. I have to say they are great strings. I don't find them floppy at all. I like a little looseness for chords and bends. I have them on my Lakland 4401 and Ibanez SR530. Great balance,feel and tone.

I have them on my Lakland Skyline 4401 and Ibanez SR530 both with Barts MK1 pu's. I play the Ibanez at church thru an old Peavey tx 2x10 4 ohm cab with an SWR 350 (red face) head. I had to turn the bottom down it was so full. But these both are used sets I picked up here. I wouldn't give up...

Fender Rumble v3 500 Fender Rumble v3 40 Mesa Walkabout What I had that I would kill for again Acoustic 408 cab with the 260 head. But i'm too old to carry those around anymore. But OMG the tone and volume.

Thanks to the classified ads here, I now have traded in my Chromes for TI flats on both my main basses. They just feel and sound so good. Still have med. scale Chromes on my Hofner copy. I love flats.

Thanks Jon!

I played Boomers many moons ago and they used to have red silk at head stock and plain ball ends. You're welcome good luck.

Bill Kenney-Incubus, Paul McCartney. I agree with Pbass2 there are alot of players using flats in studio and live.

here are the Roto swing bass 66. They have a similar look at the bridge red silk.

True story guitar palyer I played with used to always set his drink on his marshall vintage head. I warned him over and over. One night he spins around hits the beer with his head stock...................smoke, sparks and bye bye marshall.

Me too! I'm close I'm 58. I remember hearing that on WSAI here in Cincy. Great days and times!

Awesome song!

Yes, just like you can't use a speaker cord as a guitar cord. Go to music shop and get a 3ft. speaker cord. I bought a Monster speaker cable and another at Sam Ash. Why two? One as a back up.

Mattrill said: ↑ Thanks. If I combine a 2x10 and 1x15 it won't blow my amp up:cool:? My knowledge about amplifiers is pretty non-existent :dead: Not at all, the 500 head is designed to produce maximum power at 4 ohms, and both those cabinets are 8 ohm cabinets.....using both of them will be 4...

I have my 500c on top of a 1x15. It's a match made in heaven. You just need a quarter inch speaker cable.

I bought the other TI's great TB'er here. Bump for a good deal!

That's awesome!!!

I use the 40 at church and use the line out to the pa. I mainly just use the 40 as a monitor plenty loud. I have the 500 combo that would be overkill. I agree with Linnin keep the 40 and get the 200 if you feel you need more. My piano player would have a cow if I brought something bigger and louder.

I would email pic to Sadowsky customer service. That very well could be the cause of the string not sounding right.

I have med. scale XL Chromes on my copy.

I'll take them! PM sent. Thanks

BassStringsOnline.com ask Jason here. Could be Ken Smith, not sure.

Once you go flat , you can't go back! ;):bassist::thumbsup: Loving my set of TI's, I should have made this switch years ago. Chromes on my other two basses, but that will change as soon as I get the coin.

Weeks just keep playing them, takes awhile.

Fast Fret before you play. Works for me TI's on my Lakland and Chromes on my other two basses. I lightly sand my calluses twice a week with an emory board. Keeps them smooth and dead skin off. Read about double bass guys swearing by it. Works!

I agree exactly what you said. I didn't find them floppy at all. I have a tendency to dig in, but like you said they play so easy and sound so good. and you don't have to.
