Nice silky strings
I am a Thomastik JF-344 fan, but wanted to try something else for my fretted Bass. These strings have low tension so very comfortable to play and the sound is very warm (deep) indeed. I was surprised by the overall results on this bass and will keep those going forward. Compared to steel strings this bass has now a completely different character. As the sound is darker en dryer I did also some recording tests and they succeeded in this situation as well. I did not have to change the setup of the bass due to the low tension but can imagine that this could happen for others. The low E and A are at the ball end thicker than standard steel strings so one has to push harder to get them properly set in the bridge. All in all I love them.

Black Magic Bass
These strings play so smooth and deep and still they are very articulate, and as a bonus they look so good on my bass with all black hardware! My new favorites, coming from TI flats...

Smooth but surprisingly bright
All the benefits of smooth nylon wraps but with great crisp tone.

THE Black Nylons.
It is to me, the best nylon strings. I used différents sets of LaBella nylons, and I'm Always really pleased with the feeling, the sound, the overall quality of their product. To my ears they deliver the best mute/brightness compromise of all nylon strings.
- thomann service: still unbelievably good. -

Best strings I have ever used
Until now I've been using simple round-wound steel strings. However, after hearing some really good reports of these I decided to give them a try.
I have the strings fitted to a fretted Maruszczyk Elwood X (Jazz style bass but with a MM humbucker at the bridge) and they just sound fantastic. The tone is deep and rich with plenty of body.
I play in a Prog-Rock/Metal band with two guitarists who tend to use very distorted sounds. These strings really help bring a deep bottom end to the sound while still cutting through the mix very well.
It is worth noting that the tension on these is quite a bit less than with the same gauge metal strings. As such, I did have to raise the action on my bass a little to avoid un-wanted fret buzz. However, they are a utter dream to play all the same. The lower tension took a little while to get used to, but in the end it means that I can play with a softer touch which in turn helps a lot with my speed.
Oh, and then there is the feel of the strings - so nice under the fingers. After using these I doubt that I will ever go back to any others. They might be a little more expensive that other strings but you really do get what you pay for.

Superfast strings
Very fast and easy played strings. The nylon coating is very smooth. Since these strings are flatwounds they will not give the "bite" sound of roundwounds, but the sound is very good. E-string is a bit "dull" in high positions.
I use these strings on an old Jazz Bass FL, and they are very comfy.
These strings will not stick to your fingers even if you sweat a lot.
