Anybody here have any experience with these? I have tried LA Bella low tension flats and chromes, so I was wondering how these would compare. I will be using it on a P Bass (no tort).

I like them. Not as bright as Chromes off the start. More like Fender flats (not nearly as "dead" as La Bella or GHS) in tone but less bright as well. Nice tension, certainly less than La Bella and Chromes. Quite pleased with them so far. Only had them on one of my P's for a week so they still have a lot of maturity to go through but so far so good!
Awesome. I have a set of the medium gauge chromes here, but I think I will try the Dunlops first.
Thanks for the sound clip @Kenova. Got some real funk meat there. They just don't have the power in the attack for me, but I'd like to hear them after a years hard play.
I gave the dunlops a few weeks. I went back to the low tension LA bellas for the feel and sound I get.,
Used Dunlop flats on my Precision bass when I recorded this. Audio sample on the first post.
