 Great strings if you like a particular sound (see review) Feb 07, 2007
By Patrick D. Goonan
"see profile for URL"
I use these strings on my Spector fretless bass because they tend to give a sound that is more in the direction of an upright. It's a more mellow and less metallic sound that I find is particularly well-suited to jazz.
These strings hold up well and tend to retain their tone. I also find that they are easier on the fingers and a good value for the money. If you are looking for a more mellow sound, they are certainly worth a try.

Excellent Flatwounds Jan 23, 2011
By Frederick Connelly
Smooth easy players. Best flatwound for the money by far. You'll never go back to straight steel after using these.

GHS Flat Is Where It's At Nov 30, 2011
By Ray
First, I wanted to say thanks for the guys who did leave previous reviews. This helped me a lot. So if you are looking into these strings I will be as descriptive as possible. I never played flat wounds before until I just got my Fender fretless bass that came stock with flat wounds. I have an MTD bass that has a maple neck with a very bright tone when using stainless strings, so I thought these flat wounds would smooth out the tone from being almost too twangy. I am very pleased with these GHS stainless flat wounds! They are like as smooth as the as the plastic used in a tennis racket's gut strings (sorry, all I could think of). So this is night and day different in feel and tone of regular round wounds. The tone is perfect for me on this particular bass. It is not dull in any way and really sounds like a bass string should. I use Ernie Ball nickel round wounds and D'Addario nickels usually and this is nothing like those. I feel they are like the best choice out there for flat wounds, since Amazon has the cheapest deal and others like DR or Ernie Ball are two times as much. I mean come on, who can justify $40 bucks for flat wounds unless you are that dedicated to the brand?! Overall the tone is deep and smooth with zero fret buzz or string talk (which was a huge issue with my other strings). MTD's have a zero fret and crazy sustain and this really increases string talk and ring and these helped my poor finger techniques. So I hope to have helped some of you reading this know something about these wonderful strings and if you have a long scale it will be no problem as my 34" scale had over 6" of string cut off the string to fit my bass with at least 4 wraps on the post. This will be my new main string for at least one of my many basses that has its own smooth tone of choice.

Can't Get Much Better Than This Oct 19, 2011
By Handsome Johnny
It can't get much better than this for the serious bass enthusiast. I will not be switching back to roundwounds unless someone pays me to. I am so glad I bought this item on a whim. I imagine I'll use these strings for the rest of my life. Great Job GHS!
