Flea sounding short scale strings?

[noneedlessnoise]

I've got a Gibbo SG Supreme with awful fender strings on it, that's all GC had. I've found with this particular set of strings, I usually get a dead string or two and I've had it. They don't even sound good anyhow, so I was wondering what I should do. I was going to order a set or two from juststrings, but I was looking for advice. I know my gibson will never sound like a jazz or a modulous, but I like that sound. Any ideas? I've been doing mostly slap and finger style stuff lately.

thanks!

gibson is always into that crunchy sound if your looking to slap get a better bass throw like $500 together and you will be able to get a flea sorta bass. My advise if your intrested in slap is you need a more jazz like bass. get a single/maple neck.
