i dont know if anyone has tried them. i just placed an order, they have 3 groups of flatwounds. you purchase a separate b string .130 for 10$ i used www.bassguitarstrings.us for my order- group 1 -55 75 90 110 group 2- 50 70 85 105 - ones i bought group 3- 45 65 80 100 as at $23per set TI:s are .43,56,70,106 these are much heavier and might make up for what i think is a light sounding g string of the TI's i will get back after i get them and throw them on direwolf shipping is only $6 regardless of order at $40 out the door these are much cheaper than TI so am crossing fingers they dont sound cheaper than TI"S -hohoho | ||

One thing I'm going to start doing is to keep a log, writing down the date I change strings on each bass. That will make it easier for me to get a good idea of how long a set of strings lasts. | ||

I bought two sets for my fretless 5. Both the Bstrings came in dead. I e-mailed Ernie Ball and they told me that I was wrong. I will stick with LaBella's and TI's. Just my .02 Dale | ||

Slapbass i've had the same experience with "dead" (new) ernie ball strings too in the past and have since quit using them,plus the G strings dont last long they break too soon!.... | ||
