TI Power Bass Strings

[MAJOR METAL]

A friend back home was the one who introduced me to TI strings. The first string he showed me was the Power Bass strings and then the Jazz Flats. 20 years later, the TI Power Bass string is still the most melodic and musical string I've played.

I recently decided to try roundwounds on a bass that I've only had flats on since I've had it for 5 years. The first set of flats were TI Jazz Flats the second Sadowsky blue label flats.

The voice of my instrument opened up in ways I didn't know possible. I don't think I'll ever have flats on this bass again!

Are the strings on the bass in the pic the Jazz Flats or the Power Bass? Do the Power Bass have silk; if so, what color?

I’ve never used those. I have played several different types of TI string. Curious to try.

I have a few sets of Power Bass strings. Definitely interesting gauge choice for sure.
Very clear tone and well defined tone. Have gone lighter gauge since then but think
it's time to revisit them. A strong neck is recommended.

Definitely far more tension in the string compared to the Jazz series.
