ok... The Reason I siad the Addarodo is because I can pick up a 5 string set up and just have to buy a 32 for it to make it a complane 6 string bass.

See the D'Addario tension chart, not enough choice of gauges to do 6 strings balanced tension, the closest is either 132 100 75 55 40 32 (high C tghter) or a heavier set 132 105 80 60 45 32 (low B looser).

Okay, but that isn't going to be balanced tension at all. The G and D will be much tighter than the lower strings.

Is it normal for Flats to sound like Round wound? Because thats what I got was Flat but they sound practacal the same as round in my ears.

Chromes are bright, they won't develop that thumpy sound until you play them for a few hundred hours or more.

you know if you play for a few months it doesnt matter if you play razor blades your fingers can handle it!

smooth balanced.....circkleK and Fodera nickels.

fodera actually feel a little grippy in a cool way not a finger ripping way...but it smooths out after they break in a bit. They are really nice even toned even feeling strings for the money.
