Fender CL flats

[Selim]

I've been playing bass guitar for 30+ years and playing on many different flatwound designs for the great bulk of those years.

In all that time, I never tried any of Fender's flats.

So I'm hear to report I was more than "pleasantly surprised" by Fender's 9050CL (45-105) flatwound set. For one, they have the highest output of any other flatwound string I've tried. And they give me what I want from a flat: warmth, punch, and ... taste!

I'm impressed!

I used these for a few years on bothof my G&L 2500 basses, but alas I can't find them in a 5 string set anywhere.
So I now use GHS nylon tapes

Fender did bring back the 5-string sets four months ago, along with the 9050CL and 9050SL sets.

Thanks I'll look for them when I need strings again
