  1. [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1379257834' post='2210420'] Going by the description I`d say Chromes as well. [/quote] [quote name='D.I. Joe' timestamp='1379274597' post='2210762'] Or save yourself a bit of cash and go for Fender flats. They too are rather bright for flats, feel great and are cheaper than Chromes - and they are also made by D'Addario! [/quote] Thanks for the input guys, think i might go with Hotwires since they're between the price of the fenders and chromes, simelar tone, and I'd rather support a small buisness than a massive one
  2. [quote name='Delberthot' timestamp='1379213167' post='2209915'] Definitely Chromes. Depending on where you play and how hard you hit the strings they can sounds thick and thuddy or cut like a knife I also discovered tonight that my regular fingerstyle sound makes for a really good slap sound [/quote] So that's a better option than one of those middle ground types, ie pressurewounds, groundwounds etc?
  3. Hi, I'm in a band that plays music that has quite a bit of contrast in it, with hip hoppy (or occasionally Mowtown esque) verses and a rather heavy wombats style chorus. So need a string that can sound warm and old-schoolish, yet still be able to cut through a mix in a heavy section. Any recommendations? I was thinking a pair of bright flats, like status hotwires or Chromes.
  4. He wants £150 for it. I think that's fair since he let me borrow it for a couple of days. Still slightly worried on the filtering dependant hum :/
  5. How much is the cab and head worth? The amp is a carlsbro stingray from 1986 and all I know about the cab is its 150 watts RMS Trace Elliot also from the 80s. There is a slight hum which seem to be dependant in the filtering settings but to be honest that doesn't bother me much. Am posting because I know nothing about bass equipment! My first post so sorry for any mistakes!
