Black Tape Nylon Double Bass S : Nice strings on a budget
10 years ago
Bought to go on a scrappy student bass I'm very pleased with how nice these strings have turned out. I can't speak for bowing but for Jazz pizz. they can put out a good volume and have a pretty even round sound all over the range (except the open G which has a little too much zing on it).
They're not noticeably wider than plain steel, so there was no need to file the slots in the bridge or nut any wider, and personally I find the slight powdery feel of the nylon tape nicer than steel to play on.
And just as a little after thought, they look very slinky.
