Great string - not for my bass sadly
Pros: Usually a very reliable string. Sadly not the right fit for my bass. It remains a fantastic string in other setups.
Cons: Didn’t keep up with the rest of my strings in terms of projection and ease of play. The A string is so important to get right, perhaps more so than the others.. But this is because of various different things. I have experienced fantastic flexdelux with other setups and basses
Grade 8+
A happy choice - no regrets.
Pros: Compared with the Evah Pirazzi set I previously tried, these steel rope strings feel very clear and clean, well defined intonation and very pleasing tone both for arco and orchestral pizzicato. Powerful but well balanced across all strings.
Cons: The wolf tone that I had previously tamed came back very precisely between G and Ab and it will probably take me some time to find a good position for the wolf 'eliminator', and to adapt my playing. But with any change on my instrument I expect a period of learning before we both settle down.
Other: Bought as a set. Comments apply to all.
