    Half Rounds?

    To anybody who has tried half-round/groundwound strings; tell me all about them! How do they play? Tone? I'm interested in getting a set of 5 for my Warwick, so if your setup is similar, I especially want to hear.

    Paul Turner Sound, dead roundwounds?

    I'm not sure if this is the right place for this question. I my main basses are all 70s position active Marcus Miller type of basses. I love the way they sound. But what irritates me is the fact, that the Bass I get the most compliments on is my 60s position Moon JB5 with a Bartolini NTBT...

    Body – Alder, Squier Standard body. It's a beautiful shoreline gold, which was a little hard to photograph and looks better in person. There are a few minor dings on the body, and the pickguard has a very minor alteration at the neck pickup. Nothing affecting playability. Pickups - Carvin J99...

    Substitute for D'Addario 71S?

    Dammit, why did D'Addario stop making short scale half-rounds? I loved the 71S. Are there any other strings that are similar? I've seen people recommend GHS Brite Flats, but aren't they flat, not half round? Thanks for your suggestions!

    Can someone explain Half Rounds to me?

    They are not quite what I expected! I just naively bought a pack just because the are marketed as a compromise between flat and roundwounds by d'addario. Which they are clearly not, they are something on their own. I have played many flatwounds that are much brighter than these. I dont think...

    String suggestions for Yamaha BB-735A

    About a year ago, I landed a Yamaha BB-735A. It was to fill a void in my arsenal (5 string and P/J) and hopefully be a one-bass-does-it-all for most gigs for me. But I've just not found the right string for me yet, so I'm reaching out to the TB consciousness for advice. I've already...

    String Options for Squier P Bass

    So I bought a CV60’s P a while back, almost immediately put a set of GHS Precision Flats on it, and sat back and proceeded to love that smooth but dark, thumpy, and bumpy tone. However, I recently picked up a Player Jazz and decided that it was time for the flats, as they’ve been on every...

    All strings sold as a lot shipped CONUS. All were cut for inline Fender 4-string.

    Bought a bass and need to ID its strings

    I bought a Jazz bass, and the strings that were on it have gold-red-black-green ball ends for EADG, no silks, just tapered ends, and if they are rounds, they are the smoothest rounds I’ve ever played. They feel like a light gauge, .100 at most for the E. Going by the ball end colors, I’m...

    D'Addario Half-Rounds v.s. Ernie Ball Cobalt Flatwound strings

    Both of these strings have the flatwound sort of texture yet they have more of that roundwound brightness, but i'm not sure which one i want to buy. 1. Do D'Addario Half-Rounds keep their initial brightness for a long time or do they lose their sound quickly? 2. Which one is overall brighter...
