Heh, D'addarios have the highest tension/worst flexibility compared to gauge of any brand of string I've tried.

La Bella Hard Rockin' Steels are my personal favourate. Great feel, great life, great tone.

To a note of what I said about bending with fingers behind the string on a .55 guage I was actually refering to D'Addario Pro Steels.
I love them, and the Nickel plated version, for their tention, tone and reliability...took me a damn few years to find and strings I liked.

[quote name='owen' post='486507' date='May 12 2009, 11:32 PM']TI Jazz rounds are THE BOMB.

Bendy, rubbery (in a good way) long lasting. I love them very much and I was looking for just what you were looking for.

Did I mention that they are THE BOMB?[/quote]

I reckon I'm gonna have to get me some - have you tried the flats Owen ?

I have both strung up on different basses. You are welcome to borrow them.

Another vote for DR. I like FatBeams, and keep meaning to get some Sunbeams for my Jazz.
The secret really is in the round core. Much softer and more compliant under both hands.
