Reviews around product (5.00 of 5)

  • Good product
  • I play in one band that uses Eb tuning for blues rock covers where I need to use a 5-string active Fender Jazz bass, again, not one of my preferred products (I mostly play Warwick and Ken Smith basses, which do not have the sound or look for this band's target market)

Reviews around tension (5.00 of 5)

  • Flatwounds were the right tension, but the high end was just not sitting well in the mix
  • They give enough tension at Eb tuning to have accurate intonation and feel

Reviews around hand (5.00 of 5)

  • Less right hand attack gets me the classic bass tone, heavier right hand gets that modern bass "piano wire" tone
