[quote name='Wooks' post='182078' date='Apr 21 2008, 06:36 PM']I'm venturing into the realms of the fretless bass and I was wondering what strings should I use? Now I know people will say it depends on what type of sound I want to achieve, flats will produce a more upright bass sound and rounds will be a brighter sound.
What I would like some advice is if I use rounds obviously these will mark the fretboard. But I was wondering how quickly will rounds take to "damage" the FB if at all?[/quote]
I've just gone over to D'addario Chromes on my fretless and can highly recommend them for sound quality, they are quite bright and work better, for me , than rounds on a fretless.
