You have to go to the forum that corresponds to the question you want to ask, then you will see a button in the top right hand corner to start a thread.

D'addario half-rounds strung for BEAD tuning (.065-.130).

For flats it's now TI. For rounds it's 45-105 Sunbeams. I'll occasionally use Daddario 45-100 for gigs that downtune because they're a bit stiffer and don't flop when they drop.

 

[Gyver]

TI Jazz Flats now, but have used GHS Precision Flats, Chromes and Fender Flats as well. All sound good but I really like the tension of the TIs.

 

[Jefff]

I played Ti flats for years. To my ears they are the most musical flats. A while ago I switch to D'dario nickel rounds under the assumption that it's easier to darken a tone than brighten it.

My next set will be Dunlop Ultra Bright Nickels.

Because I have the best tone pot ever put on a passive bass.

 

[okcrum]

D'Addario Chrome medium flats on one and Dark Horse medium nickel rounds on the other.

I have 5 basses. My favorite P Bass string are the TI Rounds. The mids and low mids just sing and can cut through or if you roll off the tone sit in the mix beautifully. My other 4 basses include LaBella flats, TI flats, EB Cobalt flats and Fender rounds. But, my go to sound comes from my P with the TI rounds.

Ok, I've talked myself into ordering another set.

American Standard 2008.
Currently with LaBella Gold White Nylon Tapewounds (750G).
About to replace (possibly temporarily) with LaBella '54 Vintage Flats (760M).

For round wounds, I change them up depending on what tone I'm going for.

Rotosound Swing 66 for the zingy, crunchy rock tone. I find DR Lo Riders sound very similar, but are gentler on frets/fingers and last far longer.

GHS round-core Bass Boomers are great for when you want more mid-range thumpiness.

For a well-balanced, all-around tone I like DR Sunbeams (round-core; nickel-wound) and DR Hi-Beams (round-core; stainless steel)

I bought a 63 AVRI in December and have only replaced the strings with Fender medium gauge roundwound. I don't usually use this string at all but I like how they sound and play on this bass. What do you guys use on your Precision?

Chromes - exact same bass. Just do it man.
