AB345 Acoustic Bass : Fantastic soft attack acoustic sound
8 years ago
These bass strings are fantastic for people who try to get a very soft attack, quick decay, warm sound. It gives a vibe that sounds between a classical guitar and a double bass, very interesting and expressive.
Three caveats:
- The strings are slack and roll under the (picking) fingers. It needs some time to adjust.
- You need a piezo, as they won't word for magnetic pickup
- Because of the low tension, they produce a quieter sound.
Pros (why I cannot use anything else on my acoustic bass)
- the sound is unique, soft, acoustic, doublebass-y, lush, rich.
- the strings are consistent between sizes, and between sets
