Flatwound string advice


Recommended Posts

I've always preferred the sound from the bigger gauge strings. My round wounds were 130 and the TI flats B string on my P bass is 136.

 

My preference is for deeper, warmer tones so I use the thickest strings I can find.


You do know that thicker gauge strings doesn't mean warmer tone?

Why are Dunlop flats so expensive? Surely they can't compete with LaBella or are they so superior?

Dunlops were around £45/£50 when first released but due to inflation, all their prices have rocketed. 
 

Dunlops are more 'modern' than La Bellas but still have that classic flatwound sound. I really enjoy mine on my P bass. 
 

I bought them for $45 when I was last in the US so around £36/£37.
