Boomers or Slappers?

[Johnius]

I've only used DR strings in the past and currently have Lo-Riders on my Stingray H with the one piece maple neck. I'm thinking about branching out and could use some advice / opinions on whether GHS Boomers or LaBella Slappers would sound better with my set up. All opinions welcom. And thanks.

I try both in my thumb bass and I like much more the slappers...

I have Boomers on my G&L that still sound great after 14 years !!!

I agree im always amazed at how long boomers retain there brightness (at least for me they usually stay nice and broken in for at least a year )

If I were you I'd stay with DR, they are much better...

apples to oranges... been using Boomers for years, no complaints at all.
