RS88LD Black Nylon : Upright tone for electric bass
These strings must be the closest I'll ever get to an upright tone on my JB-40FL. Very deep, woody sound while still retaining some sustain.
Unlike the LaBella black nylon tapewounds with their plastic-like smooth feel, these strings almost feel like they're covered in very finely woven cloth. I hope this doesn't compromise longevity.
Unfortunately the A-string is more dark grey than black like the others.
Colour difference aside, I like the tone and the texture is probably the best for fretless 'fretboard' wear.
