Review: Feel amazing, sound amazing! - OMG! Just awesome. Very little finger noises or fret clank. Look great, Feel great to the touch. Mellow double bass sound but still some brightness. Will buy more in the future.
Review: Superb quality strings that feel and sound beautiful - I bought a set of these for a bass build for a customer. Once installed, I thought they were really top notch, but waited for the customer's verdict. They were also highly impressed, and love the smooth feel. On par with LaBella tapewound. Obviously this style of string is particularly appropriate for a fretless, because wear to your fingerboard is minimised, but they will work very nicely on a fretted instrument too. I would describe their tone as rounded, warm, rich, comfortable. They are not an aggressive sounding string, by any means, but they will deliver nice dynamics and respond to player input in a satisfying way. Very highly recommended, and nice that I was able to get a medium scale set, when all the other lead makes seemed to be unavailable in the UK.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What strings do you recommend for a Epiphone eb0 and a Cort Junior, both short scale. I was thinking maybe Nylon and Flatwound**
A: I use D'Addario Chrome flatwounds and the Nylon tapewound. I find flatwounds smooth as silk with none of that finger noise or "tizz" you get with roundwounds.
The flatwounds also have no ridges so don't collect all that gunk you get with roundwounds they last year's as well.

**Q: I string my 5 string bass eadgc. are there any such packs of nylon tapewound strings? if not, is the high c available separately?**
A: I use chrome tape wound strings and yes there is a chrome flatwound C string available for tuning EADGC...I cant for the life of me remember where I got mine but I'm sure a google search will find one. Not seen a nylon tapewound one though.

**Q: What are the best set of nylon tapewound strings for a Fender Jazz bass**
A: I've used a few different brands over the years - but I must admit that I almost always come back to D'Addario for most strings these days - Bass, Ukulele and Guitar! They are very consistent quality and I like the sound of most sets they do. I'm using these particular bass strings on a Squier (jaco Pastorius) Fretless Jazz Bass and they sound exactly right to me.

**Q: What scale strings would i need for a Hofner Ignition bass?**
A: Although the bass scale length is 30 inch you will need 32 inch strings as there's quite a distance between the bridge and the string trapeze. I use 32"

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Black Beauties (Scale Warning).
*by D***S on 12 August 2014*

Took up the bass again after playing in bands in the 1960's (see my other reviews if needed). I used to use La Bella tape wound then for a McCartney/Jack Bruce type sound ie. thick, warm, mellow but with a punch when tone and mids turned up on the Marshall amp. These strings are very similar without having La Bella prices. Beautiful rich tone. Ideal for Beatles, Jazz, Blues. Not the ones you want for Metal or slapping. This is only my humble opinion of course as strings are strings and can be used to play any style but tread carefully here. They are NOT zingy in any way. They feel like an angels kiss on the fingers. Smooth and soft like velvet cord. The tape winding feels more like a shrink wrap as no winding coil is noticeable. Hammer ons and slides are a joy. I still have callouses on my left hand but that's because I have an acoustic six string. You may notice I wrote a review for Elixir Nanoweb strings which I gave 5 stars to. I stand by every word of that, they also are a great set of strings in a different way. I think I've found my sixties mellow sound with these beauties. IMPORTANT: Because the web page said suitable for up to 34 inch scale guitars I ordered these medium scale strings for my 34 inch scale Classic Jazz guitar. They are much to short for a Jazz guitar. I have mine strung with approximately 2 inches of blue cotton winding past the nut toward the first fret. They still sound great but if your measurement from the bridge to the nut is 34 inches you need these strings in long scale.
