I have a G&L L2000 Tribute that I would like to change to flatwound strings. I think it's got D'addario rounds on it from the factory.

I like a lower tension string with a warm tone. The Dunlops are the only ones I've used. I have a set of those on my jazz bass. I also have a set of the Labella Low Tension flats on a P bass, but the jury's still out on those. They might be too floppy.

What do you guys think?

God Bless, Ray

Out of the three mentioned in the title, the Dunlop flats are the warmest and lowest in tension (as in most flexible).

I would suggest the light set (45-95) of GHS Precision Flats. Woody warmth with focused punch. Comfortable tension/stiffness without feeling floppy.
