Detroit Flats, any good?
- Thread starter RandomKaren
- Start date
Just took them off a jazz bass after being on for a couple of weeks.
They’re okay. But I did not find anything special about them. A generic flat wound tone. But they are comfortable to play (tension on the low side or medium).
You may have a completely different result…
Edit: when it comes to flats, two weeks is not really long enough to be able to make any kind of judgment/appraisal

They are on my Stingray 5 now and I quite like them! Definite old school thud but also a nice bright edge. 5th string is not bad at all for a heavy gauge string.
