flat wound bass strings
I just put flat wound strings on one of my basses
and they sound really good. Perfect for getting a
60's sound. Roundwounds get that clangy
metal-on-metal sound (perfect for slapping or that
grinding Jesus Lizard style) but the flatwounds
are the shiznit for that deep,mellow almost all
bass tone sound (think 'Good Times Bad Times' by
Led Zeppelin). Also they're nice and smooth, so
you can get the super slides going...fun
