    TI Jazz Rounds vs DR Sunbeams for 5 string fretless?

    Which do you prefer, and why? My fave fretless tone is Mick Karn from his Japan Tin Drum album for reference.

    Rounds vs Flats on a fretless?

    So, I finally got in my Rogue Fretless... It's actually not too bad right out of the box. Strings are kind of crap but that was in every review, so I was expecting it. The E is amazingly dead. I have a friend that is recommending AGAINST flats and suggesting I should put on rounds. I know...

    The background is... I have a P with TI Jazz Flats that will remain that way forever, and I want to take the Chromes off of my passive PJ and try some rounds that lend themselves well to my preference for flats. In other words, less finger noise, a bit thumpier and not too much zing. The...

    Flats on E & A, Rounds on D & G

    I normally use Rotosound Swing 66 on my Precision and am satisfied with the tonal variations available with finger style and hand placement, but reading about flats is intriguing to me. Has anybody ever tried some thumpy flats as your two low strings, and sparkly rounds as your two high strings?

    which rounds for smooth feel and piano clarity?

    I've got a 5 string that I'm looking to put new strings on. The bass sounds fantastic, but has a good bit of meat in the mids and low mids that seem to really benefit from strings with that taut, piano like clarity. Some of the strings I've tried in the past that attempt to do this have...
