DR Fat Beams vs. Sunbeams

Fat Beams, being stainless, are brighter and more aggressive sounding. They're both round core strings so they the same flex, which to me is great.

All I use are Fat Beams and Sunbeams. Fat Beams go on my basses that I'll most likely slap. They also go on my fretted 6 string. Sunbeams go on my fretless basses and one of my J basses where I want a warmer tone.
