Sunbeams or TI flats on a P bass?

[klokker]

Sunbeams are a sweet string for sure. But for straight ahead rock on the P bass its DR lo-riders for me, a bit more aggressive and tight bottom end; a bit less of the huge lows that I dislike immensely. They age nicely.

This is an old thread, but in case anyones comes across this in the future, I recorded some sound clips of TIs vs. Sunbeams here: soundcloud.com/clustermugs/sets/strings-1

Neither. I'd go with GHS flats.

My Pbass has LaBella Deep Talkin' Flats, which is a perfect match.

Could not agree more..... LaBella 760FL's!

Thanks Sigma!
I need back to back comparisons like that, playing the same scales/licks each time for my ears to hear the detail.
I bought an American Precision on Monday and I'm trying to determine if I want to change the strings on it or not.
