    I am curious as to what rounds those folks who fancy themselves as predominantly flatwound users like? I love LaBella and TI flats but have had my roundwound world turned out.... I have been a recent D'Addario Nickel XL convert in the past few years and I used to like DR's. I am looking for...

    Heaviest Gauge Set of Flat wounds or Half rounds?

    Whats the heaviest set of flat wounds you've come across? I'm looking for a heavy set. The heaviest I've come across is 130-135. Currently I'm using La Bella flats and like them but would like a real heavy set of either.

    Chromes flat wounds vs D'Addario half rounds

    I've been using Chromes (medium) exclusively for the past 4 years. I still dig everything about them but am curious to try some half rounds. For reference, I usually play with the tone knob on the bass almost at 0% and use lots of fuzz and overdrive. Anyone have experience or anecdotes about...

    TI SuperAlloys -vs- PowerBass -vs- Jazz Rounds

    I've been moving a set of TI SuperAlloys around to different basses and am really enjoying their sound on every bass I've tried them on especially in a band setting. Great mids, articulate when played softly and aggressive (but not abrasive) when played hard. I get the most dynamic range from...

    Music Man flats that sound like rounds

    Before anyone thinks this is another "what flats punch like rounds" thread, hear me out: Recently I heard someone mention that Ernie Ball has a set of flats now that are basically rounds with a flat coating that gets close to the sound of rounds (not quite but close). I want to say he said their...

    Good pick style with rounds?

    I made the switch to flats recently because I prefer the feel and the sound, especially with a pick. However, I just got a new Mustang bass and Im stuck with rounds until my flats come in next week. How do you get a good pick sound that is not clanky, metallic or tinny sounding? I have an Ampeg...

    Hey all! So I'm not new to this whole bass world by any means, but have been wondering this for a while.
